Sheringbam, Norfolk.—On the 27th March, at the request of the Chief Constable of Bedfordshire, the motor life-boat Foresters Centenary put out to search for the Duchess of Bedford who, some days before, had set out on a short trip by aeroplane, alone, and had not returned. A wide search for her by land had already been made without success, and on March 24th two Sheringham fishing boats found pieces of wood, four miles off Sheringham, which were part of an aeroplane of the type which the Duchess was piloting. The life-boat searched for seven hours and found nothing. Some days later parts of an aeroplane which were definitely identified as the Duchess's were found at sea. The Duke of Bedford made a donation to cover the rewards. — Rewards, £23 8s. 3d..
