ROSS-SMITH'S ACCOUNT.
(Received Monday, 10.20 a.m.)
SYDNEY, This Day
The Sun's special cable from Captain Ross-Smith states that after leaving Cairo he flew along the coast to Gaza, then inland across the Sea of Galilee to Damascus, and thence to Tad mar and across the desert to Abukamel.
He followed the Euphrates, and thence via Bagdad, Kut, and the Garden of Eden to Basra.
The weather till the last day was blowy and rainy, which militated against good flying.
