spelled instant destruction for Capt.
Alcock and Lieut.. Brown in mid-At-
lantic. for both were drenchcd with
petrol due to a flooded feed pipe
when they landed. The cockpit was
thoroughly soaked with the fiuid.

would have crashed. burst of
flame would have followed and
tragedy would have been inevitable.
The aviators appreciated their COOL
luck today when they surveyed the
situation.
It was found today that the ma
chine was begged more deeply than
Alcock had supposed and that re-
pairs would take more time than he
had expected. He. therefore, de-
cided to abandon the plane for con-
tinuing the flight to London.
After a great reception here this
morning. which was attended by
people who had travelled many
miles to see the plane and the men
who had brought 1t across the
ocean, Aicock and Brown started
for Dublin. where they will take
boat for Liverpool. and 90 by train
from there to London. where an
other great reception awaits them.
