THE SMALL WORLD BALLOONISTS ARRIVE SAFELY—The gondola of the balloon, the Small World, with its crew on board, being towed ashore. It was sighted four miles out of Crane Bay, Barbados, by the fishing boat, New Providence. The crew of four Britons left Teneriffe, in the Canary Islands, on December 12, but the balloon floated for only three days. The next 21 days were spent on the ocean in the balloon’s gondola.
