Lieutenant Lundborg declared that, he considered Nobile’s condition very serious, and, as conveyin, Natale Ceccioni, the other injure man, who was much hi , to the landing place would have taken more time, he thought it better to take Nobile first, rather than Ceccioni, The latter, in the meantime, wi carried to the landing stage to aw: Lundborg’s return.
