In the evening of Tuesday at 8:30 p.m., Mr. Jules Chauderiot, 65 years old, retired, saw from the window of his bedroom, coming from the direction of Bavay, a flying machine, a luminous ball of yellow orange color, which stopped above a meadow around his dwelling house and then appeared to make contact with the ground, while leaping and moving horizontally. It finally disappeared heading towards Taisnières-sur-Hon.
Let us add that Mr. Chauderiot is very affirmative in his statement.
