Q: How did he describe them?
A: He described them being about three and a half to four feet tall,
very slim in stature, and with—their heads were hairless, with no
eyebrows, no eyelashes, no hair. Sort of a pear-shaped head with the
top of the head being smaller—larger, I mean.
Q: Any other characteristics about their appearance?
A: Only one thing that he mentioned. The hands were not covered, they

RAGSDALE, JAMES EYEWITNESS Transcript
26 JANUARY 1993
DS: So you were actually out there.
JR: Yeah.
DS: Do you remember the name of the ranch it was on?”
JR: It was on ... Fisher?
DS: Was it north of here.
JR: Yes ... back out here.
DS: Northwest ... Just take your time.
JR: It was Foster. (Some discussion with his wife about who owned the
ranch) ... Let me see what you’ve got (referring to the photographs).
That’s the place right there (identifying the location from the
pictures).
DS: What area?
JR: It seemed to me that that place belonged to ... Fisher, but it sold
to somebody else ... somebody else bought that... That’s how come I was
out in that area. And we was out there and she’s dead and all the guys
I showed the stuff are all dead. It’s amazing what all went on...
Discuss our book and the Museum.
DS: showing one of the pictures ... so you think this looks like
JR: That looks like the place.
DS: As far as the ranches go, driving around at that time, it could
have been most any ranch, right? This would have been in '47 ... You
were with this woman?
JR: Yeah. We were camped out out there.
DS: You were camping?
JR: Yeah... I would say half of it ... I would say that only about
half of it ... just half of a ... you really couldn’t tell what it
was ... what you could still see, where it hit ... I think it was two
spaceships flying together and one them came down and the other one
picked up what they could and got out of there.
DS: Is it possible that because it was hit by lightning that it broke
up and part of it went down ... (discussion of the Mac Brazel sighting)
JR: ... but it was either dummies or bodies or something laying there.
They looked like bodies. They weren’t very long ... over four or five
foot long at the most. We didn’t see their faces or nothing like that
but we had just got to the site and heard the army, the sirens, all
coming and we got into a damned jeep to take off. We had to hold a
fence up to go onto another ranch to come out from there.
DS: How far would you say this from town here?
JR: Thirty miles ... forty miles.
DS: In a northwesterly direction?
JR: Right up here. (Discuss the pictures again.)
DS: Were there any buildings?
