REMARKABLE COINCIDENCE
SYDNEY, 27th March.
A remarkable coincidence, unprecedented in Australian history occurred at Camooweal in the late afternoon, when Smith and Shiers -in the City of Sydney, en route to England, and Piper and Kaye both landed simultaneously. The meeting in the lonely outpost was the more remarkable because neither ’plane was running to schedule.
