A resident of limoges also claims to have observed the mysterious craft seen by a Corrèze farmer

Limoges, September 14 — A resident of Limoges, Mr. Georges Frugier, has declared that on September 10, around 8:30 p.m., he saw in the sky a red disc flying from east to west, leaving behind a bluish smoke trail. Mr. Frugier described what he had seen to his family, but met with cautious skepticism.

It was this morning, upon reading in the newspapers the account of the event involving a farmer from Bugeat (Corrèze), Mr. Antoine Mazaud — who, as remembered, claimed to have encountered the passenger of a "flying saucer" — that Mr. Frugier decided to report to the authorities what he himself had observed.
