and listen Whenever his little black
ears capght an unexpected sound, no

Presently he came to where the

The water was laughing, gurgline

that splash was any different from
the splashing of the water on the

OF Mineola Air Tragedy

Lieutenant Raymond E. Davis, the
pilot who was killed with five enlisted

it was only through the efforts of the
