RESCUE OF MRS MILLER
INSINUATIONS RESENTED. AIRWOMAN “MOST UNHAPPY.” (tinned Press Association—By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) MIAMI, Dec. 2. Mrs Miller and Captain Lancaster expect to fly to Miami on Wednesday in the ’plane with which Mrs Miller made the forced landing at Andros Island. Captain Lancaster and John Leggett flew to Nassau on Tuesday, where they picked up Mrs Miller. They proceeded to the stranded ’plane with gasoline and oil. Mr Leggett has returned to Miami.
Ivarl V. Velkert, who flew to Nassau and returned on Tuesday in a relief ’plane, brought back copies of a statement given by Mrs Miller for publication. Slib said in part: “I am most unhappy about myself. As an experienced flier I feel ashamed to think I failed to reach my objective. Those who suggested I might do so for publicity purposes arc despicable. I hope my reputation as a sportswoman is good enough to refute such a thought.”
