Кайтангата

New Zealand

In the night of Sunday July 25, the mysterious object appeared again on the beach and was seen by Mr. George Smith and Mr. Poulter about 8:30.

Mr. Smith examined it through a very powerful telescope. Apparently, it was the house of Mr. Aitkenhead when he first saw him, but he slid high into the air and sailed North in the direction Kaitangata, disappearing over the horizon.

Around 10:30, Mr. Smith was called by Mr. Poulter to see the airship reappeared. This time he went to sea and eventually disappeared. As can be seen through the glass, Mr. Smith said that he looks like a bright object with a dark superstructure with a powerful headlight and two smaller lights on the side.
