THE END
Editor’s Note
For many weeks the newspapers in and about New York and in the Middle West carried an advertisement and a request for information. It had been inserted by order of the captain on one of the big trans-Atlantic liners. He was holding in trust a silver cigarette case which he wished to restore to the friends or relatives of Captain Malcolm McBride, skipper of the plane “Dauntless,” which had completely disappeared while on a non-stop flight from New York to India.
