Greetings all..
Due to request, I am posting 2 newspaper clippings that appeared in
the Roswell Daily Record on July 8, 1947.
ROSWELL HARDWARE MAN AND WIFE REPORT DISK SEEN.
Mr. and Mrs. Sam White apparently were the only persons living in
Roswell who have seen what they thought was a flying disk.
They were sitting on their porch at 105 North Foster last Wednesday
night at about ten minutes before ten o'clock when a large glowing
object zoomed out of the sky from the southeast, going in a
northwesterly direction at a high rate of speed.
White called Mrs. White's attention to it and both ran down into the
yard to watch. It was in sight less than a minute, perhaps forty or
fifty seconds, White estimated.
White said that it appeared to him to be about 1,500 feet high and
going fast. He estimated between 400 and 500 miles per hour.
In appearance, it looked oval in shape like two inverted saucers
faced mouth to mouth, or two old-type washbowls placed together in
the same fashion. The entire body glowed as though light were showing
through from the inside, though not like it would be if a light were
merely underneath.
From where he stood White said that the object looked to be about 15
feet in size and making allowance for the distance it was from town
he figured that it must have been 15 or 20 feet in diameter, though
this was just a guess.
The object came into view from the southeast and disappeared over the
treetops in the general vicinity of Six-Mile Hill. White, who is one
of the most respected and reliable citizens in town, kept the story to
himself hoping someone else would come out and tell about having seen
one, but finally today decided he would go ahead and tell about seeing
it.
ARMY AIR FORCE CAPTURES FLYING DISK IN ROSWELL REGION
No Details of Flying Disk are Revealed
The intelligence office of the 509th Bombardment Group at Roswell
Army Air Force Base announced at noon today that the field had come
into possession of a flying saucer.
According to information released by the department, over authority
of Maj. D. O. Gray, intelligence officer, the disk was recovered on a
ranch in the Roswell vicinity, after and unidentified rancher had
notified Sheriff Geo. Wilcox, here, that he had found the instrument
on his premises.
Major Gray and a detail from his department went to the ranch and
recovered the disk, it was stated.
After the intelligence office here had inspected the instrument it
was loaned to "higher headquarters."
The intelligence office stated that no details of the saucer's
construction or it's appearance had been revealed.
