DEATH OF LOVERS
BELIEVED CAUSE
(Continued from Page One)
tears and hysterics, excited the In
terest of attendants at the London
hotel.
(The dead In the crash of the Ace
of Diamonds were Flight Lieutenant
Henry Longfield Beatty. Flying Offi
cer John A. C. Forbes, Lieutenant
Willis, four other officers named Al
len, Bailey, Rees and Wogan, Ser
geant Wallace, and a civilian named
Penn.)
Went to Death Alone
The girls. flew out to death alone
for, aside from the airplane's pilot,
there was no other person on the
eight passenger ship. The Misses Du
Bois had reserved and paid for every
seat In the plane, apparently in order
to be by themselves on the channel
crossing.
The plane s pilot, J. Klrton. did not
notice his passengers' disappearance
until an hour later when he was well
out over the channel.
Scotland Yard detectives were im
mediately sent out from London on
the case for two sealed letters were
found on one of tha seats in the
plane after the horrified Klrton took
it back to Romford airport.
Officials described the dual deaths
as the strangest air tragedy In Europe
since Captain Alfred Lowenstein, the
famous Belgian financier, disappeared
July 4. 1928. from a cabin plane over
the English channel.
I.eters to Parents
The two letters were said to have
been addressed to the girls' parents.
Mr. and Mrs. Coert Du Bois. Their
father Is united States consul gen
eral at Naples.
The bodies landed In a cabbage
patch, close to the edge of town. The
impact drove them a foot into the
soft soil. The first police on the
scene outlined the spot with rows of
wooden pegs.
The plane was operated by Hlllman
Soloon Coaches and Airways, Ltd..
which runs passenger service from
Romford to Paris.
A Hlllman official said the doors
of their cabin planes lock from the
Inside. "A cabin door could easily be
opened from the Inside," said the of
ficial when he was questioned as to
whether the pressure from the slip
stream of the propeller would be suf
fllcently strong to hold the door shut
against the Btrength of two women.
Both Girls Young
Elizabeth was 23 years old; Jane
waa 20. They had stayed for the last
three or four days at a hotel In the
west-side of London.
One of the attendants there said:
"For the last day or two they ap.
peared to be very upset about some
thing. They seemed rather hysterical
and cried a lot. I have no idea as to
what was the matter or what was the
reason for their tears."
During September, the two were
said to have stayed at a private ad
dress In the west-end.
Police sealed the airplane's doors
after they had examined the 40
pounds of baggage apparently left on
the plane by the sisters.
The airplane Is a biplane with two
engines and with seats for eight pas
sengers. Pilot Klrton said the slaters ap
peared to be agitated when they
reached the airport preparatory to
boarding the plane.
Consul Franklin C. Gowen, of the
United States consulate In London,
took charge of the case on behalf of
the United States' officials.
