Initial data
In a pine forest on Cape Cod, Lloyd Costa saw two people near a circular dome that looked like a "tent" 20 feet (6 m) in diameter, just 35 feet (10.5 m) away. A fluorescent blue light was coming from inside the tent.
He walked away, but when he heard the hum, he looked back and saw that the "tent" was surrounded by colored rings; it began to rise and fall, and glowing portholes appeared in it.
The car stopped, and Mr. Elf, one of the witnesses, went into the woods and called out to him; he, too, had seen a UFO.
The "people" near the object were described as small "puppet-like" and surrounded by something transparent. The smell of almonds or cyanide made Costa sick. His friend helped him back into the car.
The next day, he returned to the site and found a circle of about 20 holes with a diameter of 6 inches (15.27 cm) there were also pieces of whitish woven material "like a spider's web, but very strong." Some of which the witness took and kept.
He also took home trampled pine needles that still had an almond smell; when he put them in a cardboard box next to the potted plants, the plants died after 3 days.

Summary: In a pinewood on Cape Cod, Lloyd Costa saw 2 people near a round dome like “tent” 20 ft in diameter, only 35 ft away. A fluorescent blue light came from inside the “tent.” He walked away, but on hearing a humming noise, looked back to see that the “tent” was encircled by multicolored rings; it began to rise and fall, and showed luminous portholes. A car stopped, & Mr. Elfe, a fried of the witness, came into the wood calling for him; he too saw the UFO. The “people” near the object, were described as small “resembling puppets,” and surrounded by something gauzy. There was a smell like almonds or cyanide, which made Costa feel sick. His friend helped him back to his car. The next day he returned to the spot, & found a circle of about 20 6″ holes; there were also pieces of a whitish woven material “like spider web, but very strong,” some of which the witness took & saved. He also took home some of the trampled pine needles, which still had an almond like scent; when he put these, in a cardboard box, near some potted plants, the plants died in 3 days.
