AMERICANS FINISH
HISTORIC FLIGHT
NC-4 Reached Plymouth Safely, Com
plotting Last Leg of Overseas
Journey.

Plymouth, England, May 31.-The
American seaplane NC-4 completed its
long flight from the United States to-
day.
1t arrived here from Ferrol, Spain,
on the last jump Of it's journey at 1926
p. m. local time (1:26 p. m. Green
witch time). Keen interest in the
event and the fine weather which sue
ceeded a rainy morning brought out
large crowds to greet the arriving
Americans, the great wings of whose
biplane were made out off the harbor
at 1928 p. m.
The NC-4, making a dashing fin
ish, swept quickly landward and three
minutes later settled down on the wat
ers of the harbor, to the accompani-
ment of cheers from the crowds and
salvos from all the steam craft with
in sight-its memorable transatlantic
trip ended.
Plans to Fly Home.
It has been learned here unofficial
" that there is a prospect that the
American seaplane NC-4 may fly home
wei the direct Atlantic route from
Ireland to Newfoundland. 1t is under
stood a conference will be held here
shortly to discuss the project.
American naval officers say that
the NC-4 is in better condition than
when it bega nits flight. Further
more the experience gained by all of
it's navigators and pilots would prove
of inestimable benefit should the re-
turn flight be attempted.
Left Ferrol at 6:27 a. M.
The NC-4 left Ferrol at 6:27 a. M,
Greenwich time, and made the distance
of approximately 500 miles to this
port in 6 hours and SO minutes, or at
the rate of nearly u miles an hour.
The seaplane's progress was reported
several times in it's flight across the
mouth of the Bay of Biscay, first by
the second station ship, the destroy
er Barney, which it passed at 7:43
a. M, and next by station No. A, the
destroyer Hardwood, at 9:03.
The NC-4 was half way across the
Bay Of Biscay and by noon it had
completed this section of it's voyage,
passing between Brest and the Is
land of Guessant, between ~ M. and
1890 p. m.
Was Forced to Alight.
Lieutenant Commander Read who
brought the seaplane across the At
lantic from Trespassey to the Azores
and thence to Lisbon had intended ma
king the trip from Lisbon to Plymouth
in one jump yesterday. He was COM
PEELED to alight yesterday morning in
the Mondego river, about 100 miles up
the Portuguese coast, however, be-
cause of engine trouble, but soon pro-
ceeded as far as Ferrol, on the north
western tip of the Spanish mainland,
where the plane was moored for the
night, proceeding early this morning
for this port.
The altered program for the greet
ing to the commander and crew of
the NC-4 included a reception immed-
lately after the arrival on board the
Cruiser Rochester. The formal re-
ception by the mayor of Plymouth on
the Mayflower pier was set for 4 p. m

CREENEVILLE FRIENDS

Luxembourg, Dec. 9th.
Dear Mr.. Earl
| will try to write you letter of
appreciation for the box of candy
you sent me. 1t is hard to express
my appreciation and thanks to you
in being so thoughtful and remem-
bering me on Christmas, though am
far away. | wish that | might have
some other way Of expressing my
thanks to you, but as you know ]
have not.
You will notice by the heading of
this letter that / am no longer in
France.
Since the armistice was signed we
have hiked some 100 miles, and are
now in the province Of Luxembourg
not so far from the beautiful city of
Luxembourg. ! don't know how long
we will stay here. Some think when
We move we will go on into Germany
and take up our course with the ar
my of occupation, which is to occupy
a part of Germany for probably sew
sral months. ! only wish that our
next move might be toward home
But some way ! feel that may not
be home for months yet. All the
boys are very anxious to go home
now. They all feel that they have
done their part, and as the war il
over, they should get to go home.
We have had an awfully hard
time over here. Our trials at times
lave been almost unbearable; but we
have stood them and are coming back
rome as good, if not better, in every
way than when we left.
! will be glad to hear from you
and close with best wishes to you foi
successful year.
P. S. The box of candy you sent
would have cost $1,000 over here.
Sincerely,

DAREDEVIL ACE
DIES AFTER FALL

PARIS. July 11.-Sublieut Jean Ma
varre, who was one of the first aces
among the French aviators during the
war, and who was withdrawn from
the service because of his eccentric
escapades, fell while flying in the
vicinity of Versailles this afternoon,
and died soon after in a military hos
pital.
He was about to land at the air
drome at Villacoublay when, in try
ing to avoid q cllision with other ma
chimes, his airplane crashed.
Navarro was officially credited with
bringing down twelve enemy air
planes, although the Paris news
papers during the latter part of his
service in the French aviation corps
credited him with the destruction of
nineteen enemy machines. He was
awarded several decorations by the
French government for his exploits in
action against enemy aviators. In
April, 1917, after his retirement from
the service, he was arrested and
placed in a military prison, charged
with having run down several police
men Of Paris with his automobile.
