Case description

NICAP's November 1983 chronology places a humanoid report at Spencer, Indiana, at dawn, with the reference shorthand “Sympap,84.” It supplies neither an exact day nor a firsthand narrative. The imported first-of-month date is therefore a sorting placeholder, not a documented 1 November encounter. A later compilation adds an account of a man waking before dawn in a cabin, seeing a silent moving beam through a window and then two men outside. It also mentions a memory lapse and labels the incident an abduction, with “Tomey, Roger” attached to the summary. Those details belong to that later source; the original testimony and the cited symposium contribution were not recovered here. No sequence describing physical transport can be established from the brief summary alone. The available sources do not give the two figures' appearance, clothing or a craft's form, and they do not establish whether additional memories came through hypnosis or ordinary recall. Missing time and a catalogue abduction label should not be expanded into a medical or onboard narrative. The plate explicitly follows the qualified later cabin summary, retaining two humanlike figures and a light beam while leaving any source vehicle out of view. Portraits, clothing and the cabin remain illustrative.
