Case description

At approximately 2 a.m. on May 21, 1988, a man associated with the earlier Allagash case and his wife reportedly experienced another encounter at Townshend, Vermont. The catalogue identifies them only through that connection, without naming the couple in this entry. The report is described as an abduction, but the preserved summary does not give a continuous account of the interruption or an interior encounter. A related part of the case history mentions a cyst being removed and reportedly sent to United States Air Force laboratories in the Washington area. The available wording does not establish who removed the cyst, when it was removed, or the result of any examination. Those later claims are kept separate from the couple’s reported early-morning experience.
