PROBATE FOR ULM’S WILL.
United Press Assn. —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. SYDNEY, March 11. Events associated with the disappearance of Charles T. P. Ulm and his companions on the ill-fated flight from America for Australia were related in the Probate Court to-day, when counsel sought leave to swear to the deaths of Ulm and George Littlejohn. Sir Charles Kingsford Smith’s affidavit expressed the opinion that the aeroplane sank within a few minutes of touching the water near Honolulu. Sir Charles was also convinced that the American naval authorities at Honolulu made exhaustive and magnificent efforts to locate the aeroplane, and that no good purpose would be served by further prolonging it. Ulm’s widow and private secretary also gave evidence about Ulm’s intention to establish a regular air service between America and Australia. The Court granted both applications.
