After reading the "paper" reporting the appearance of a flying cigar in Comines, on Saturday October 23, at 9:15 p.m., more than one reader - many echoes have reached us - believed himself authorized to attribute the fact to the imagination of the local correspondent.
When we say imagination, the fact is somewhat watered down. They believed more exactly that the "seer" was none other than the one who is responsible daily for bringing to life the facts which mark the existence of a city. Let everyone think again. The "seers", because there were two of them, revealed the thing to us only with the certainty that we will never reveal their identity. The local correspondent did not see anything, but he believed and still believe in the sincerity of these two honest people.
