Seven Bombs Dropped. Guided by bonfires built on the ice at the most likely valnerable points, two large Martin bombing planes from Aberdeen Fleld, each carrying four men and four bombs, began the attack. Thousands of residents in New York, New Jersey and Pennsyl- vania gathered in the.vicinity where the three states adjoin and saw the spectacle. 3 Seven bombs were dropped at in- tervals of twenty minutes, four tear- ing great cavities in the ice six feet deep. The other three landed on the New Jersey shore. throwing up clouds of earth and snow. One of the hombs striki: endangered @ group of STANDARD SOAPS Woodbury's Jfor ..
