I The engine was functioning prop erly Mr. Sanborn said. It was the consensus, however, that the plane was turned too quickly and at too low an altitude. Messer had the th ii?t tie wide open in an effort to lirf the nosing over ship at the time of the crash.

The engine sank two or three feet into the soft earth and the ship was ft total wreck. It was necessary to cut and hack away a portion of the cabin of the plane to extricate the pilot.
