LADY BAILEY
FOUND BY FRENCH AIRMEN Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, January 19. The Paris correspondent of ‘ The Times ’ says that army airmen found Lady Bailey where she lauded, with only one hour’s supply of petrol, 1,450 miles from Oran. She apparently drifted eastward thirty miles for every 100 of headway. She had the option of returning to find a landmark or continue in the hope of reaching Niger before the petrol was exhausted. PALE AND WORN OUT. PARIS, January 20. (Received January 21, at 10.30 a.m.) One of Lady Bailey’s rescuers said she was very pale and worn out by the effort of flying when not feeling too well. She was only able to crawl out of the cockpit with great difficulty. She had eaten practically nothing since she landed. She was very feverish, but smiled and waved her hand when she saw them.
