VIEW OF ZEPPELIN
SEVERAL ENGLISH TOWNS BOY SCOUTS' MISSION (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 1.20 p.m. RUGBY, May 23. The German airship, the Ilindenberg. appeared over the British Isles, last night on her trans-Atlantic journey from Lakehurst to Frankfort. She was first seen over Ulster at about 6 o'clock last night, and later several English towns had a good view of the airship. The parcel containing flowers dropped from the airship as it passed low over Keighley was found by two boy scouts, who went to Morton* Banks cemetery, about two miles from Keighley, where about 20 German prisoners- were buried during the Great War, and placed the tributes on the grave, as requested in the note accompanying the flowers.
