CARR AND GILLMAN
STORY OF DESCENT
{A.P.A. and "Sun.") (Beceived 16th June, 11 a.m.)
LONDON, 15th June. The>first connected narrative of Carr and Gilljnan's descent into the Persian Gulf,' mailed to a friend in London, discloses that the sleeplessness and strain began to tell, and, in their own words, '' the instruments and gauges began to grin and make faces: at us." The parachute was not adrift and sections : protruded from the water like sharks' fins, a grim suggestion of the actual-fate they escaped by abandoning their intention to swim ashore.
