GR|EVE FOUND
By Steamer Mary. Had Ira.
versed LOO Miles When
Pump Stopped Working.
EACH WILL GET $4,000

LONDON, May 25 Harry G..
Hawker and Lieut.. Commander
Mackenzie Greieve. the two airmen,
who started last Sunday to fly
across the Atlantic ocean from st.
Johns, Newfoundland, have been
picked up at sea and landed in
Scotland. Both men are in
perfect health.
1t is officially announced by the
admiralty that the aviators were
picked up in latitude 5000, longi-
tude 1880, having alighted close
to the little Danish steamer Mary
owing to a stoppage of circulation
in the water pipes between the ra-
diator and the water pump.
The airplane, Sopwith machine
was not salvaged.
The first report of the aviators
since their Jump off" last Sunday
came when the Mary, which was
bound from Norfolk, Va, to Aar-
huus, rounded the Butt of Lewis
today and wigwagged the fact that
she had Hawker and Grieve
aboard.

planet" was the signal.
''Is it Hawker?' was the ques-
tion sent out by the flags from
the butt, which is the most north
westerly point off the Rebrides
group of Scotland.
Yes" laconically replied the
Mary.
The admiralty Immediately sent
| out fast torpedo boat destroyer
| in an endeavor to intercept the Mary
| and take off the aviators. There
was an anxious wait of several
hours when the word was flashed
| that the destroyer had come across
the steamer and transferred Haw-
, ker and Grieve and was taking them
TO Thurso, on the northern coast
| of Scotland about 100 miles east
| OF the Butt of Lewis
The destroyer, the Revenge, re.
ported to the admiralty this evening
that Hawker and Grieve would
sleep on board tonight. The avia.
tors will reach London at Z O'Clock
Tuesday evening.
The news of the rescue has e1ec
trlned all Britain. All destroyers
