Then the rest of the plene came through end it liil had the left wing on it. The plane was falling at less than a 4.vdegree angle, almost straight down. 1 heard an explosion after it hit the ground and saw clothing and stuff blow up in the air. The con cussion nearly knocked me to the ground." Albert Harpe: "I saw an awful big plane coming down end over end. Two parts were incoming down. It's so messed up, I can just say it looks terrible?' ' Theodore Wilsoiii 1 "I heard an explosion. I saw this plane fad ing. It hit the ground and blew up again. I was in World War JI and I've heard plenty of sounds like the explosion from the air before. II sounded like a 500 pounder or a' 16-inch shell explod ing up in the sky. Parti of the fuselage. maiL bodies and debris ot all kinds were scattered all1 over. Mrs. McKinley Roberts, coun try storekeeper: '.'I heard an ex plosion which made a terrific thud, I saw a plane, or maybe it jusi pan ot a plane down. It was on fire."
