Who Knows?

Away back in 191l-on Nov. IA to be
precise the Journal printed a special
story from Searsport which is now
recalled by the recent yarns about
the mysterious airship mentioned
above If it has no connection with
the present mystery the article will
| bear repubhshing for its own interest.
1t follows:
Searsport, Me, Nov. IS, 1911-(Spec-
iaD. --There is no little excitement in
town over the monoplane which is being
| ago, having bought the Tilis place at
completed here by Inventor c. u.
Greeley, who came here a few months
| what is known as the Harbor or Park
Mr.. Greeley has been very quietly
working on his invention and, last
Tuesday, Prof. Bonnette, the we'll
known birdman, accompanied by a
helper, arrived and with Mr.. Greeley
they have been hard at work, putting
on the finishing touches to the ma
chine.
Pref. Bonnette in convNsation with
a Searsport man recently. said that
the machine is different from anything
yet produced and if it can be made to
fly, will be superior in many ways to
those already on the market. One thing
which makes it superior is the fact
that it is so built that it cannot tip,
even though the engine stops.
MIR. Greeley has been very secret
about the invention and 1t is only
within a few days that the people in
the vicinity have really been sure
that he was working upon mono
plane, although the suspicious looking
freight which was delivered to him at
his new home in Park made people
very curious.
Had the weather conditions been ia
vorable it is more than likely that the
machine would have been tried out in
the field belonging to the Rachel NJ.
Pendleton farm at Park, not far from
the 3. & 4. station at Kidder's point
The field is thought by Mr. Greeley
and Birdman Bonnette to be most
favorable place in which to try the in
vention. Many people, in spite OF the
strong southerly wind which prevail
ed, all day yesterday, went to Park
to be on hand in case anything was
done There was nothing doing, how
ever.

Story to Mind.

The Boothbay Register in its issue,
of Jan. Is said:
1t is reported that people Of Booth
bay Center recently saw the myster-
ious airship pass over there in the
dead of the night, the big flashlght Of
the areoplane flashing so strong in
their bedroom windows as to awaken
them in time to see the air craft be-
fore it got out Of sight.
Down Rockland way many people
have reported seeing the mysterious
craft or rather its big light. For six
weeks reports have come persistently
Of the strangers appearance. No one
seems to have discovered where the
airship is kept or who owns or man
ipulates it. 1t always appears at night
and it is believed by Knox County
people to have its headquarters on an
island or in the forest 1t must be cold
