Flying from Dover to Sangatta, near Calais, France, he .»circled over that village, flew back to D0- ver without descending, circled over Dover and finally descended, after a magnificent flight of ninety minutes, during which time he cov- ered over fifty miles. He is the first English aviator to cross the Channel, and the first airman to make the double journey.

The aeroplane soon grew visible to the naked eye, and when it was over Dover lightship, 2}; miles from the shore, the chanâ€" nel steamers and yachts and ves- sels in the harbor set their tooters going. while the crowds cheered themselves hoarse. Rolls didn’t descend at once. ‘ , Gradually decreasing his height, he circled above the outer towers of Dover Castle, then made a, bean- tifnlly judged encircling movement over the ancient Norman keep and finally aft-er a series of other evoâ€" lutions landed in the meadow from which he had started, as lightly as third stops.
