With such details of inside informa- tion, it was not difhetilt for Stefnn and his friends to come to e remn- nble conclusion and at least to take steps to tit their needs to the conclu- sion if it proved to be 8 correct one. Actually in the broad essentials, their conclusions fitted and served them '.elr--and Glynn Elhman very ill. The pilot was to be brought to the Prince's house, stay there the night, And be driven to Croydon next day be- fore noon. The next day was Sutur- day, and 12.30 pan. was the hour of the Indian Air Mail's acheduled de- parture. It was not difficult to con’ dude that the pilot was to be sent on the Air Mail, nor that if this were so. The full report of this was in Stef- an's possesaion within an hour, and on the heels of it came another from Max at the aerodrome that he had "f1xed" theSrttaxtoiose a wheelofthe undercarriage in taking on. but that Glynn EHiman had just been driven " in a car in which the Prince's aquerry had called for him.

One suggestion is that a landing-stage could be erected over the Thames between Southward and Blackfriars bridges, where the river is only about 600 feet wide. If this position were used. there would be nothing to pull down, and a stage could be placed in one complete span across the river, at that it would not interfere with shipping. 21 MAIN Sim: EAST, HAM! wLION 364 BAY STREET, TORONTO As an outstanding low-priced enhancement in value.

Nevertheless, the attempt on the Syntax modified the procedure for next morning, and Glynn drove in a taxi instead of the household ear which might possibly be recognized as 'that of the Prince. He drove to Vic- toria, meaning to take the Airways passenger motor from their terminus office, but first went to the Post Offiee to send off a number of letters and a few telegrams to friends sayiné he would be away for a time, and would "You see what it means," the equerry explamed to Glynn.

TALISMAN GOLD MINES LTD broke away that it would have meant a seriously bad crash and a "write. off" wreck' of the machine and, prob- ably, anybody aboard her. Very quickly on the heels of that advice came a good reason for it--a report from the Club that it had been found that the Syntax had been tam- pered with, that a wheel of the under. carriage had been so carefully loosen- ed that the machine must have crash- ed either in taking " or on landing, and that the job had been done delib- ertrtely and with knowledge enough to make sure the machine would have, been at such speed when the wheel V - V_ - T'""""" “I." and shoot?†From there the talk slid " into technicalities of carrying end using offensive Weapons, with a side discur- sion into the rival merits and demerits of I revolver and an automatic.
