Light In Sky Is Blinding | Short Time

MONCTON (CP)—Two. Monc- ton .men, returning here from Fundy National Park in Albert County, reported they saw a pear - shaped object emitting a blinding light over the gounty Saturday night.

Sam Doyle and William Ken | medy said they saw the object near Gowland Mountain at 38.10 p.m.

“The light was so bright Sam had to put his arm over his eyes and stop the car,” said Kennedy. The object was visible for 15 to 20 seconds. .

“Neither of us had ever seen anything like it, it was not like a shooting star or lightning or any- thing like that.”

Its brightness lit a nearby field “as light as day.”
