[Ref. 732] JEAN SIDER:
French ufologist Jean Sider found about the case in the newspaper La Résistance de l'Ouest of November 5, 1954, and he indicates that on November 4, 1954, at 7:05, Eugène Jollet and Henri Guilbaud, two farm workers for the Reffé house of Pont-Rousseau, were going to their work.
They then saw "an elongated machine accounting for five to six lit lamps (sic) which went up in the sky without making noise."
