The farm next to Cleo's: dog barks, camera too late

What was reported

The day after her own sighting, Cleo heard from people who gathered at her shop that the object had gone on to another farm not far away. The farmer, a white man, was roused by his dog barking, went out to look and saw something he too took for a flying saucer. He dashed inside for his camera, but by the time he came out it had left. His workers, who had also seen it, said it had been resting on the ground in an open patch of land, and that the farmer's dash for the camera came too late because it had already lifted off. Cleo never went over to speak to him and does not know whether anyone checked the ground for marks; she says she was too frightened of the small people said to ride in such machines.
