"Only one piece of the strange visitor has, so far as we have heard at time of writing, been found. It is a 12.5-pound chunk which struck the ground within a couple of feet of the verandah on the residence of John Shields, about three miles from Shelburne and Horning’s Mills, spattering earth up against the side of the house and imbedding itself to the depth of 18 inches. The stone was dug out of the ground on Monday morning and brought to town, and it has since been on exhibition in the window of Jelly and White's hardware store, where it has been viewed by a whole shoal of people." - Shelburne Economist, 18 August 1904
