Mrs. Pacquette is visiting her parents here while awaiting word of the flyers. “They promised me as they took off from Detroit that they would come back,” Mrs. Pacquette said in substan- tiation of her belief. She thinks they were forced down “in an out of the way fjord, & tiny un- charted island—some place in that lit- | given | tle explored ocean expanse has them & haven,” she said.
