week. He said:
did you know that the
first balloon ascension In
America was right here at
Bladensburg way back In
1892 That's Is years before
Washington became the
Capital. The balloon had no
passengers.
"It was made by a Charles
County lawyer named Peter
Carnes. A week or two later
he put up his balloon In Bal
timore with a l3-year-old
boy in it.
I'VE are trying to find out
more about Peter Carnes,
who later moved to the
neighborhood Of Augusta,
Ga. Maybe some Of your
readers could help u.s."
AS promised possibly as a
reminder-the fruits of his
research arrived by mail q
few days later.
There was an account OF
the event from the June gath
issue of the Virginia Gazette,
published in Alexandra,
which started:
"ON THURSDAY LAST,
Mr.. Peter Carnes. a gentle
man Of Maryland, distin-
guished in the law. made an
experiment in the vicinity Of
Bladensburg, of one of those
new invented aerostatic bal
looms, which have for so long

We knew one reader who
would know about it, so we
called on Paul CARRIER, cura-

Smithsonian.
y "Oh, yes" he said, "that's
right. It was the first balloon
ascension. in America and it
came only a few months
after the successful demon
stration of the Montgolfier
brothers balloon in France.
Let me tell you about that.
"They say that when the
brothers were boys their
mother asked them to hang

they hung it over a fire and
that d woman's voluminous
skirt filled with smoke and

ably apocryphal.
But as young men in the
1780s they were making hot
air balloons first Of paper
and then of silk. They sent
up three animals, a hog, a
sheep and a rooster, to see
whether life could continue
when separated from the
earth.
Louis XIV became inter-
ested and directed that two
criminals sentenced to be
guillotined be given a chance
to go aloft and be freed If
they survived.
when the time came a
young man named deRozier
stepped forward and asked
why criminals were to have
the glory Of first flight. He
was willing to risk it. A mar
quis offered to go along.

their own right to say who they

was opposed to any time limit for
