It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...?

It was circa late 1950's when eyes in Pocomoke City and elsewhere on the lower Eastern Shore were looking skyward. Many sightings were made both in the sky and then on the ground. 

What were they looking for?  What did they find?  Details coming up Tuesday (10/9) here at The Pocomoke Public Eye.

Footnote:  The highly publicized Beattle case of 1911 involved the state of Virginia's charge against Henry Clay Beattle Jr., in the murder of his wife.  Beattle died in the electric chair about a week after this article was published.  He claimed his innocence throughout his trial but confessed on death row.  Unclear is why this case was cited as "an example of the evils to which dancing led."
