In an Interilew He Tells the Story of How He Flew Through Clear At9 mosphere, Fogs Clouds and Storms j on an Unknown Course. London, May 26.?It was only through the exercise of the most expert seamanship oiv the part of the V crew of the Danish steamer Mary that the rescue of Harry Hawker and Mac kenzie Grieve was effected in the heavy sea in which the little Sopwith v plane was forced to make a landing last Monday morning, 14, 1-2 hours after starting from St. Johns, to fly | , across the Atlantic. j Details of the^rescue as related by Hawker was telepraphed to the * ' Daily Mail tonight from Thurso, - Scotland, where Hawker and Grieve . landed after spending the night as miPRts of Admiral Fremantle in Scapa " Flow. . i Trouble in the filter system de1 veloped 5 1-2 hours after leaving St. j Johns, giving the airmen an intimation that their flight was destined to end in distress. With the simplicity of all epic narratives Hawker told the story this af-1 - -j -i L teronon. * j "We had the most difficult ground for the take-off from St. Johns", he said, "but once away, we climbed very n cix. "Ten minutes after the starts we had passed from firm clear weather ">v into baits of fog. We got well above them, however, and immediately lost sight of the sea. "The sky was clear as could be for the first four hours, but then the visibility became very bad. W encountv - ered heavy cloud banks and eventual lv new into a ?neavy siorm witu ram \ 1 squalls. * / . "At this time we were flying above ^ The clouds at about 15,000 feet. About 5 1-2. hours out, because of the filter , choking, the temperature of the water cooling the engines began to rise, but , , after descending several thousand feet "".."We overcame the difficulty. v "Everything went well again for a ^ few hours when the circulation sys i tern cnoKea again ana me reiuyeraiuio k of the water rose to the boiling point. "Of. course we realized that until th? pipe was cleared", Hawker said, f. "we couldn't rise much higher with out using a lot of motor power. When we were 12 1-3 hours off from St. - * Johns, our circulation system was still troubling us and we realized / that we couldn't go on without using up ail our motor powpr before reach* ing iandl y ? "Then we made the fateful decision - ~ *o play safe so we changed our course and began to fly diagonally across the main shipping route. We had been on this course for two hours and a half when to our great relief we sight> * * ,v v ed the little Danish steamer that picked us upl "As soon as we sighted the ship, we set off our very light distress signals. ^ They were answered promptly and we flew on for about JS miles farther and landed just^ihead of the steamer. "The sea was very rough and den* pfte the utmost efforts of the crew it was an hour and a half after our landing before they managed to get us on board. _ "The crew of the Mary made the rescue at great risk to themsel e?. . The small boat was launcehd only after the greatest difficulty and it was thrown about like a chip on the rough sea stirred up by the heavy northy east gale that was blowing. "Because of the heavy sea running . it was impossible to salve our machine. It is probably still afloat in the xmuuie ui me aucvijuu , Vv rir M "Altogether, before being picked uy, . we had been 14 hours gut from the coast of Newfoundland. We were picked up at 8:30 Monday morning, Greenwich time. "Captain Duhn and the Danish crew-of the Mary extended to us the greatest kindness and made us as comfortable as they possibly could.
