in for a landing at Presque Isle.
The men Of the C-S7 built a crude
shelter on the wooded lake shore as
protection from temperatures that
ranged from 20 to 10 degrees below
zero.
A great stone fireplace was erected
in front Of the hut for cooking and
heating.
But all that came after days Of
searching.
Capt. owen J. O'Connor, pilot Of
the C-S7, was able to send out what
he thought was his approximate po-
sition before coming down.
The messages were picked up by
direction fnding stations at various
points in the United States and
Canada.
Searching parties were dispatched
Immediately. The next day emer-
