Initial data
On this day, Albion butcher Charles William "bill" Smith, aged about 36, as well as father Gerald Boyer and a third witness observed a very large convex cylinder in the sky, the color of flaming amber and throwing out numerous car-sized disks that also glowed with amber.
That evening, Smith witnessed the landing of one of the extracted disks. Several 4.5-foot-tall (1.3 m) humanoid creatures, dressed in silver suits, descended the ramp and communicated with him telepathically. They tried to persuade him to " take a ride." Smith, at least, was apprehensive and refused to go with them.
They clearly respected his decision, but told him that he would receive follow-up messages that he should pass on to father Boyer.
Smith also claimed that a helicopter crew landed on his field around the same time. He went out to ask them what they were doing. Soon after, a plainly dressed gentleman who called himself "major Holmes" came to his door, asking questions about those meetings.
After the helicopter incident, Smith didn't want to talk or trust anyone connected to the government. The request to find out who Major Holmes was was rejected.
During an 18-month period in 1967-1968, dozens of neighbors, friends, relatives, and other visitors observed regular intrusions of glowing spheres on Smith's property.
Every day, Mrs. Smith offered various testimonies to further support the story.
