Uses Pitchfork for Capture
. .'..' ' - . - . ; ." j:
GLASGOW, Tuesday, May 13. (AP) A Scottish ploughman told today how he
fermed himself with a pitchfork to challenge a nazi parachuting to earth on his farm
but that the 'chutist Rudolf Hess offered no resistance and was in good humor. He
gossiped! for an hour before the authorities took him away. .
Totally unaware of the political stature of his air-borne visitor, David McLean found
fleas lying in the Iield, nis aniue
broken and assisted him to his
cottage. Two British soldiers who
turned up on routine daty think
ing they lhad caught an ordinary
German airman charted ness
about his bad luck in bailing Out.
This was McLean's story:
I wis in the house and
everyone else was In bed and
I beard plane roaring over
head. I ran out to the back of
the farm. I beard a crash and
saw the plane burst Into names
about 209 yards away.
"I was mazed and a bit fright
ened when I saw the parachute
coming slowly downward. I could
see a maii swinging from the har
ness.? I concluded it was a Ger
man airman bailing out and ran
back' to 'my house for help,. They
were all asleeD.Tlooked around
for a1 weapon but found nothing
except a j hay fork. ' 1 l
Tearims I might lose the air
man I hurried 'round by myself
gain back of the hduse and in
the' field ' j saw a' man; lyirig down
with ' hi parachute ' nearby.
ufle I smiled and i' helped him
to his feet He thanked mr but
I could see he'd injured his foot
some way. I helped him intothe
house. By this time my mother
and sister were out of bed and
made tea. He declined the tea
and smiled when we told him we
were very fond of it He asked
for sT glass of water. ' 1
"We sent word to the author!
ties i and in the meantime he
chatted freely to us and showed
ua pictures of his little boy. of
whom he! spoke very proudly.
"lie told us he had left Ger
many about four hours before
and had! landed because nlght-
' fall was approaching. I could
see frond the way he spoke that
he was a man of culture. His
English. although it had a for
eign accent, was very clear and
he understood every word we
said to .him.
"He wfcs a very striking look
Ing mans wearing a magnificent
flying suit His watch and identity
bracelet Were of gold.
"He wouldn't discuss his Jour
ney. He was most gentlemanly
in his attitude to my mother and
sister and thanked us for what we
had done for him. He was most
