Background

On a farm near Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a housekeeper (pseudonym Anazia Maria) was caring for a family member dying of stomach cancer. She claims that two diminutive, long-haired beings emerged from a landed UFO and came inside the house. They examined the girl for an hour with a device that looked like a flashlight and communicated telepathically with the family. According to her, they cured the girl and left behind some medication to give her. Olavo T. Fontes reported the case in Flying Saucer Review in 1967. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
