ETHELWYN B. HOFFMANN'S
IN SOLO FLIGHT
(Continued trum fage One)
"About four houra after leaving
Newfoundland." she said, "X noticed
flames from the exhaust, and became
very uneasy. But it would have taken
four hours to get back and I thought
it safer to go ahead.
"My next trouble was a leak In the
gasoline tank and Alt the time I was
worried whether the fuel would last
out the trip.
"To add to my troubles, I encoun
tered heavy weather and the storm
curtailed my speed.
"I saw lapd at about the middle
of Ireland probably It was Galway
and then flew north. I next saw a
railroad line and followed that to
Londonderry, and I finally landed in
the field.
Eat Tomato Juice
"All I had to eat on the trip was
some tomato Juice. The only clothes
I have with me are the flying suit
on my back and the only money I
have is-twonty dollars that was hand
ed to me as I was leaving. I haven't
even a check to sign.
"I haven't slept since Friday morn
ing but I don't feel the least bit
fatigued."
Mrs. Putnam revealed she almost
met disaster when she landed. Her
plane came to rest within a few yards
of the farmer's cottage. Half blinded
by the continuous strain on her eyes,
she did not see the house until the
ship stopped.
"It would have been exasperating
to crash Into the cottage after safely
landing." she said.
Plowman Startled
As her plane started its sudden
swoop earthward the racket of its
motor startled a plowman and his
horses in a field nearby. The horses
bolted.
Late tonight Mrs. Putnam sent her
apologies to the man, but they were
not needed. He had learned that the
plane which came on him like a bolt
by the blue had crossed the Atlantic
and waa piloted by a woman so
everything waa all right.
The arrival of the slim, blond 33-year-old
airwoman waa so unexpected
that event the Londonderry police
had a hard time finding her when
they learned she had put their com
munity in the all-time log of big
aviation feats.

in his Jail cell at Flemington with
an attorney, and "Jafsle," the ransom-payer,
went dashing through
New England on an unexplained mis
sion. The lawyer who visited Curtis was
from the shipbuilder's home town of
Norfolk. Va. After he left It was
learned two local attorneys had been
engaged.
They were expected to make early
efforts to obtain the prisoner's re
lease on ball.
Another of the bills used In paying
the $50,000 ransom waa reported to
have turned up at a New York bank.
Direct confirmation on the report
was lacking.
The two-day hunt for the man
identified by state police only as "a
gangster reported in Maryland and
thought to be connected with the
case," was given real significance by
Arthur Mills, identification expert at
the Maryland house of correction.
At Baltimore Mills refused to Iden
tify the fugitive, but said he Is a
character long identified with the
