THE FIRST FLIGHT
AS RELATED BY
ORVILLE WRIGHT
HarpeT's This Month Carried
inventors Own Account
of Event at Kitty Hawk

North Cardinals renown as
the cradle of flight is given re-
newed llstre today with the ap-
pearance of the never-before-
published story in Orvill e
Wright's own words of how he
nd his brother flew the worlds
irst airplane from the sands of
Kill Devil Hill
The June issue of Harper's
Magazine carries the article in
connection with this years Fiji
tieth Anniversary of Powered
Flight Celebration
The long-forgotten document
by Wright had lain in the musty
files of the U. S. Department of
Justice for over 80 years, when
it was recently discovered by
Fred c. Kelly, the Wrights' Off
cial biographer. 1t was part of a
deposition Wright made in a pa
tent claim brought by another
person against the Federal Gov
eminent
Wright tells the detailed story
of how he and his brother Will
Der invented and built the first
plane. They first became inter
ested in flight as children when
their father brought home a toy
''actuated by a rubber string
which would lift itself into the
air." They built copies of it
which flew successfully but a
large scale model failed to work
so well.
The Wrights began expert
menting in earnest in 1899, but
it was only after many trials
and failures that they perfected
the machine that flew at Kitty
Hawk in 1908.
Here are Orville Wright's own
words describing that immortal
flight:
"The first attempt to fly this
machine was made on the 14th
of December, but through a mis-
take in handling it at the start
the machine was broken slight
ly. so that repairs had to. be
made before another attempt
could be undertaken. Five men
from the Kill Devil Life Saving
Station were present when this
test was made. The next trial
was made on the 18th of De-
cember, in wind blowing 20
miles, and four more flights were
made. The first of these covered
a distance of about 100 feet,
measured from the end of the
rack, and had a duration of
about II seconds. The second and
third flights covered about ITS
feet, and the fourth flight 853
feet. This last flight had a dura-
ton of SO seconds.
The first of these flights on
the 18th of December was the
first time in the history of the
world that machine carrying
a man and driven by motor
had lifted itself from the ground
in free flight.
Witnesses of this flight, be-
sides my brother and myself,
were John T. Daniels, w. S.
Dough, A. D. Etheridge, from
the Kill Devil Life Saving Sta
ton; w. c. Brinkley, of Manteo;
and Johnny Moore, a boy from
