Y., at 12 o'clock at night. - The. people of the town thought that there were about six aeroplanes. The very mext morning when I got up I saw my grandfather going away with a horse and I asked him where he was and he only laughed at me and went. So I went in and asked my grand- mother and she told me all about ! When my grandfather came home he said that it landed on a farmer's field where there were oats about a foot tall. T ask- ed my grandfather if T could go and he | said ves. So I ate my breakfast firs and then 1 went and got my wheel and | rode away to see it. When I got there T saw a lot of cars | all around there, so I put my wheel up | and went to see it. It was the largest ona I ever saw. It had four engines and 12 men were in it Later all the men went to town. All the mén were English men and they said that they didn’t have cnough gasoline to take them to Boston, so in the night when they were ‘coming down the captain called “All for your- selves!” because they thought that they wero coming down into Long Island sound. But they hanpemed to clear it and landed on this farmer's oats. The captain said that the machine held 1,000 gallons of gasoline and 500 gallons of water. One of the tires was about five or six feet tall. When it started I stayed in back of it and it made so much. wind that it almost blew me down. WILLIAM . SLEDJESKY Age 13. Eagleville.
