MUSEUM GIVEN
SOUVENIR FROM
HAWKER FLIGHT
ST. JOHN’S, N. F„ July 12 (by As
sociated Press).—The undercarriage
which Harry Hawker dropped from
his airplane when he took flight from
here a year ago on his pioneer attempt
to cross the Atlantic without a stop,
has been recovered, and presented
to the public museum for keeping
with other exhibits associated with
the colony’s history. The gift was
made by W. B. Grieve, M. L. C., who
purchased the carriage after fisher
men had picked it up off Cape St.
Mark’s, 200 miles south, southwest
from the point where it was dropped
Into the sea. n x
When Hawker set out on his trans
oceanic attempt on May 18, 1919, he
flew over the airdrome of Frederic
F. Raynham, almost on the edge of
the coast. Within sight of his rival,
who was standing by his plane unable
to start because of an adverse wind,
Hawker cut loose his undercarriage
as a guage to contest for honors of
the air, and to lighten his load, then
winged away seawrard with Ireland as
his object. Raynham, accepting the
challenge, sought to start, notwith
standing the unfavorable conditions,
but he was unable to leave the ground
and his machine was wrecked, he was
injured, and his navigator, Major C.
W. F. Morgan, almost killed. Hawker
it will be recalled, flew 1,100 miles
before engine trouble brought him
down.
The undercarriage was actively
sought by Hawker’s agents and by
others as a souvenir, but search of the
coast and of nearby waters, long-con
tinued, failed to disclose the wheels
and their mount. Fishermen recently
picked the carriage up off the coast,
southwest of Cape Race, and brought
it into Presque, where they disposed
of it for a nominal sum.

COL. DICK WAS
INSULTED Y
A DOUGHBOY
The following item taken from a
recent issue of the American Legion
weekly will be of interest to Cor
dovans in that the General W. P.
Richardson mentioned is the same
man who was in charge of the Alaska
road commission work here for many
years and for whom the Richardson
highway is named. The item reads
as follows:
The timid doughboy, on his first
time under fire, left his company un
ceremoniously and fled rearward. He
had covered a lot of distance before
he pulled up at the command of a
portly soldier.
'‘Halt there! Where are you going?”
“Ob, I’m joing. Who are you?”
“I’m General Richardson.”
“Holy smokes! I didn’t know I’d
run as far as that!”
Occasionally a joke-writer departs
from precedent, gives the type-worn
names of Jones Smith Brown Jigg
and Giggs a rest and employs in a
“new” name. In the foregoing case
he employed the name of “Richard
son.” The result is that Brigadier
General W. P. Richardson Camp Gor
don Ga. takes offense and considers
the jest a “slander.”
The general wrote the editor two
letters demanding an explanation and
received two in reply. He then wrote,
in part, as follows:
“My appetite for jokes of this char
acter has not been cultivated and I re
peat that I would like to know the
origination of this particular specimen
of fine literature, which I am con
strained to believe was malicious and
carefully so intended.
“I have had enough experience in
life to know that a thing of this kind
has a more persistent life than any
truthful and well merited commenda
tion; also, I have to say that it is
scarcely satisfactory to one to be
slandered publicly, with a private ex
planation that no offense was in
tended. I demand nothing of your,
paper that an officer does not owe it
to himself to demamd, and that is a
suitable public apology and explana
tion, through the same channel as the
other article and in such form as you
deem proper.”
Brigadier General W. P. Richardson
is not known to the writer of the item
in question, who served in the navy,
or to the editor of the weekly. Cer
tainly, then, there has been no inten
tion to “slander” Brigadier General
W. P. Richardson, and we regret it
if the coincidence of last names caused
Brigadier General W. P. Richardson
or anyone else so to mistake the spirit
and purposes of the American Legion.
