fellow inmates Very soon after atter he came nere here Mr Williams added we discovered him to be a man of ot more than ordinary intelligence nce He commenced making his model mode of an airship about five months ago I Iwas Iwas Iwas was Interested In the experiment and gave some material canvas and wood woodi I I i and with these he worked quietly His i only tools were a sharp pocket knife I i f and an old screw driver The model is s about five feet long made entirely of canvas and wood and can scarcely be described as a a mono monoplane monoplane monoplane plane or biplane Paris claims to

is easily controlled from the drivers foot toot plate Years Tears of experiment and much money had been expended on this engine It ItIs ItIs Itis Is chiefly the question of ot cost co t of ot con eon
