I was sorry to hear of the catastrophe. As I learned
by newspapers that Senator Copeland wants to investigate in
the case 1 wish to inform you that in oase the seppelin flew
over New York about four o'clock, the 6th (of May) at that
time | was driving with some people. Three boys, about 9 - 10
years of age, sat at the window. There was a small aeroplane
connected with & rope with the airship and flying up to her
(or around). The 3 boys said what does the little want there.
They have seen it and I have seen it. We drive with the
elevated through Bronx Park on Bast Side. In case the zeppelin
crossed that vicinity something was tied on it, I am sure. The
small (plane) was over and on (the airship). We could see it
clearly as it was very low. I do not kmow the boys.
