The woman, Mrs Dora Gabb, 34, phoned the police and spoke to Patrolman Conrad Brown, who came straight to her house to investigate. When he arrived there was nothing to be seen, but ten minutes later Mrs Gabb's 14-year-old daughter Leslie ran into the house screaming. Leslie said that she and a girlfriend were riding on motor-bicycles in the woods when they saw 'a large object, bigger than a house' directly in front 6f them, low in the sky.

I'm sorry I didn't come and see you today, but things have been awful. I didn't hear my alarm clock, so I got up late. Then, just as I was running out of the house, I fell and hurt my knee. I had to go to the hospital and wait a very long time. Three people who had been in a serious car crash came in while I was waiting and, of course, they had to go straight in before me. The doctor says nothing is broken, but I mustn't stand up much for the next two or three weeks, which is not very easy! This is why I am writing this note, which Peter is delivering for me. I will let you know when I am better and perhaps you can come round for a meal.
I wonder if you could post me the book I lent you in November? I need it for some work I am trying to do while I can't move around much. Do you remember which one I'm talking about? You borrowed it when you were writing that paper for your English class. If you could post it tomorrow or Wednesday I will get it by Friday.
I hope everything is going well and that the person who was making life difficult for you at work has realised how silly she's being. Love, Angela
