operating table at a s~anitarium as
surgeons sought to remedy a stom-
ach and intestinal ailment which
had marred his last years.
Baron Won Huenefeld was only So
years cid. but he had an adventur-
Gus career Of soldier, German mon
archist, poet and dramatist, and, fl
nally, aviator.
Shrapnel wounds in both legs dur
ing the World war left him with a
decided limp. As v~ice-consul at
Maastricht. Holland, he received the
former Kaiser and crown prince
when they sought refuge on Dutch
soil, and he later spent several
years with the crown prince in his
exile on the island Of Wieringen.
The flight which brought him
prominence took place in April last
year. With Captain Herman Koehl
and Major James Fitzmaurice OF
the Saorstaft air corps sharing the
controls, the three in the plane
Bremen flew from Baldonnel air
field. Dublin. to Greenley island.
Labrador. where they waited two
weeks in the ice and snow to be
taken out.
