Grayson's plane the Dawn and its four passengers. Although the narrators positive they heard a motors above the howl of gale and the splash of its plunge into the sea on the night of De- cember 23, they had not told their story during the five days in port were plane's | Bs the Ko -- > re] Knowl th cember 30, patie @id' not fly far beyond Cape of tly confirms i by Jerome wireless operator aboard Oakey L. Alexander here , De- time the Knowles sald that at 7:30 p. m. on December 23, as the Alex- ander was passing Cape Cod, he heard a message requesting the Chatham Station for a compass bearing. A few minutes later came through the words 'plane down." Plunges into Sea Captain Comeau said that al- though he went to his cabin after he had listened a short time, to plot the next course, he was cer- tain that it was an airplane's motor he heard and that ft plunged into the sea not long af- ter it was first heard. "No plane could have existed on a night like that. The wina was strong and there was a sleet falling, 'hich at times turned to snow, making the visibility very poor," he said. Impossible To Aid ' According to Captain Comeau, it would have been impossible to render assistance. "Our boat was making at least ten knots, w2 were taking in sail at the time and it would have been suicide to put our small boat over the side," he said. "There were two steam- ers a few miles ahead, and we could just make out their stern lizhts, but they were bound north, and there was no way to communicate with them." From Vineyard Haven, by Chat- ham, the Rose Anne Belliveau then proceeded to Salem, where she aichored for weather, : When questioned why he had not told the story before, he able . fate. related for the firs: me. THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1928 lS over with the crew, and after listening in to the messages" re- ceived over the small radio in my cabin, came to the conclusion that the sound of the aeroplane was that of the Grayson plane. "I read the papers 'which I bought in Salem, and kept think- ing about our experience off Cape Cod, and the more I thought of it the more concerned I was that the noise which we all heard, might be of some information, so when I reached port 1 happen- ed to say something about:it. And there you have it," the captain said. Little Left New York, Jan. §6.--L. Shau- matoff, general manager for Igor Sikorsky, builder of Mrs. Gray- son's plane, the Dawn, sald Mon- day, that there was little hope of the Dawn ever being found if it fell into the sea off Cape Cod, as believed by Captain R. V. Com- 'eau. If Mrs, Grayson's craft did- not sink at once, he said, it would have been carried out to sea by the wind at the rate of about 120 miles a day. WORLD WAR HERD 13 GOOD WAITER One of Bravest of Veterans Discovered in Y.M.C.A. Cafeteria New York, Jan. 6.--"If he was as good a soldier as he was a waiter, no wonder he received so many decorations," Col.

He also won the Croix de Guerre, and after the war, the Cross of the Russian Order of St. George, when he was captured by | the Bolsheviki in the Archangel expedition and spent nine months in a prison camp, In 1924, Harvey was presented hto the King and Queen at Buck- ingham Palace and the next year met President Coolidge in the White House.

Prior | ES to his arrival hére, he had put into port at Salem, Mass.,, where the Belliveau remained for five | days before proceeding. Meantime the story of the grue- 'ome event at sea remained un- ~1d, it being the apparent belief * the Nova Scotia craft's officers 1 men that they had no import- facts directly bearing on the yn, 'Come up forward, 8 the first word to reach the ster of the pending tragedy, 'outed down through the com- anionway by Mate Louis Thimo- |b# 'eau, who was on watch, i '""There's a submarine or some- 'hing out there," was added as the d in nd looked across darkened waves over the vindward rail from the schoon- r's bow.

The lights of the schooner were sighted, and the nlane brought down as nearly as wossible to the schooner, only to o to its doom.
