Moore had thrown off entirely the de- lirum from which he was seuffering when picked up ycsterdgy by the tanker Will- iam Green, but the attending physicians said there was grave danger of de- veloping pneumonia from his exhaugted condition and prele: S¥posure. ‘While the pilot, still shaken with hor- ror of his experience told Ris stery, crews of seaplanes and nayal cFaft were .re- turning from a fruitiess all-day search for the bodies of Mrs, Augyst Byite and Mr. and Mrs. Lawrepce B. Smith, of Kansas City, and Mrs. J. S. Dickson, of Memphis, who had oceupied the passeng- er-pit of the Migs Miami when she toek off Wednesday morning spposedly for @ forty minute flight to the Island of Bi- minl. The seareh will be eontinued to- morrow. 2 “We left Miami,” said Mogre, “at 11.04 o'clock last Wednesday morning in the face of a stff northeasterly wind. At 11.41, about three miputes out of Bimi- ni, something broke off the propeiler. I automatically looked for @ ship, or & | shoal, to land by. I saw a fishing smack and vol-planed down to the water apout 2 mile away in its course. “I asked the passengers not to be afraid. We were in no immedigte dan- ger and the craft was drawing near. The winds, however, were rising, and before long the hull of the boat sprang a leak. The nose of the plane begen. ris- ing. Then a big wave came zlong and lifted us. The plane turned over and we were all thrown into the ses. “Mrs. Buite came to the surface first, then Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Of the three none could swim. I sueceeded in getting thaem to the overturned pine. -Mr. Digk- son and Mrs. Buite had not appeared on the surfacme. Mrs. Bulte made this discovery. “‘My God, my husband, where is he? she crled. “I told her he would be all right in a few minutes and dived into the waters, but I c'id not locate either him or Mrs. Dickson. Mrs. Bulte began .to weep. I dived into the water and obtaiped cushions from the plane to use fer life preservers. As I returned to them, 1 saw Bulte floating. I stepped directly in front of Mrs. Bulte and obstructed her view. As the body passed me, I noted a wound en his forehead. FHe must have been killed before he struck the wa- ter when the plane overturned. “Within the next 30 minutes the scenes changed twice. On the horizon, we sighted the fishing boat. We hezan to laugh and contemplated being picked up. 1 was confident we would be saved. In fact 1 felt Jike whistling. T believe I did. It kept us up my morale. “And the fishing boat changed eourae. “1 can't understand in God's world why | he did not keep on toward us. e knew | 1 was in that ioeality some where, for he had seen me come down. T eould see his mame on the boat, less than half a mile away as he went on. “Phe winds rose during the night and the women grew weaker. At least twelve times they were swept over, but I swam out and got them and brought them back each time. “Tho next dav our hopes rose as we saw other boats pass, hut noneceme with- in less than a mile and a half of ug. I tried to keep up the morale of the oth- ers by telling them they were soldiers. It helped marvelousl¥, but ome of the women, Mrs. Smith, became utterly de- jected. “We weathered the storm of Wiednes- day night after a terrible experience and Mrs. Buite died Thursday. I saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith eiasped in each other's arms and one of them suggested that they close their eyes and jumip overboard. But they didn't, and Mrs. Smith died {n her husband’s arms. We released the hodies of the two women and they floated pway. “Thursday, as duysk approached, Smith grew delirious and I.strapped him on. At times he appeared rationai and asked me what ehances I thought we had of heing regeued. T told him I thought we would yet be saved, and he said: “‘I den't see how we can held out much longer. Dan't you think I had a brave wife?” T assured him that I had never seen 2 moOr courageoys wemgi. “‘All right, Bob,' he answered. ‘Prom- fse me that if vou return you will tell her gons how brave their mother was.
