Poe's Airshin Hoax

Mr.. Fairbanks was anticipated by
Edgar Allan Poe in the art of aerial
hoaxing. In 1874 the New York Sun
announced one morning: "Astound-
ing news Atlantic crossed in Three
Days!l Triumph of Mr.. Monck Ma
sons Flying Machine!" Folks rushed
for the paper, and found therein a
long and detailed account of the cross
ing of the Atlantic in a Siderable bal
loon by Mr. Monck Mason. Harrison
Ainsworth and four others. The bal
loon was infinitely described, long ex-
tracts were printed from diary
which Harrison Ainsworth was sup
posed to have kept on the way, and
the whole story had such touch of
truth that it took some days for New
Workers to realize how completely
they had been hoaxed.
