dc.description.transcription1-16-47 Dear Oscar, I certainly was glad to see you Tuesday. I am studying the 10/1/17 lost fireball, and it is very interesting. Do you know if anyone has ever searched about 10 miles northeast of Menard or the road between Menard and Eden. I don't see how Dr Udden figures the meteor went from NE to S.W. all I get is a path from around Nixon over Frericksburg and on to a point NE of Menard, traveling SE to NW. I feel there are two fireballs involved, possibly 5 years apart. Will write in detail later. Gene
