> 1913: MYSTERIOUS AIRSHIP SPOTTED OVER WALES
>
> During the first two decades of the
> Twentieth Century, there were a number of strange
> "airship" or UFO flaps. They took place in the USA, UK, Italy,
> Germany and New Zealand. In 1913, UK, in particular, was
> visited by a number of "dark airships." Here's a case from Wales.
> "On 17 January (1913) at 4:45 p.m., Capt.
> L. Lindsay, Chief Constable of Glamorganshire (Wales) saw
> an airship flying over Cardiff, creating 'a dense volume
> of smoke.'" Lindsay "noted it was much bigger and
> faster than the locally-built Willows airship."
> "Half an hour later," at 5:15 p.m.,
> "Steven Morgan saw a similar ship, trailing smoke, over
> Merthyr, 30 miles (48 kilometers) away--a very high speed for
> airships of the era." (See UFO: The Complete Sightings by
> Peter Brookesmith, Barnes & Noble Inc., New York,
> N.Y., 1995, page 28.)
