After it had alighted and the measurers had laid their tapes on the course, the announcer megaphoned, amid a perfect tornado of roars and cheers: "The last flight, ladies and gentlemen and apparently the winning one accomplished the remarkable distance of four hundred and fifty feet four hundred and fifty feet."
However, to our intense relief, nothing of what we had feared happened, and as the raider came slowly nearer to us up till now we had not even seen one of the enemy an officer on the bridge megaphoned us to come alongside. This we did; three boats went astern, and the one in which we were remained near the raider's bows.
We are in the rear lines and there should be more Fokkers or Taubes around." This query was soon answered. Ranging alongside Erwin, but not too near, Buck megaphoned as follows: "How you getting on anyhow? Had a hell of a time findin' you. Didn't find you any too soon, eh?"
The car went back to the head of the street where its entrance would be made. "All right ready!" came the megaphoned order. Again the peaceful street was thrown into panic by this snorting dragon from the outer world. The old men hobbled affrightedly within doors, the mothers saved their children.

An absorbed young man in cap and khaki and puttees came from a distant group surrounding a camera and readjusted the line of these people. He placed them to his liking. A wagon drawn by two horses was driven up and a rancher helped a woman and girl to alight. The girl was at once sought out by the cowboys. They shook hands warmly under megaphoned directions from a man back by the camera.
She was fit as a racing yacht; her load was perfectly distributed and she trimmed to a hairbreadth. An hour later they snored down upon the Night Hawk, the last vessel at the edge of the fleet. "Better hurry!" megaphoned Stetson, tickled with himself. "Burns cleared six hours ago for Freekirk Head with a thousand quintal. He's got Boughton sewed up to buy 'em, too."
