Jumpy, dull in contrast and imagery Mutilated passengers and members of the ill-fated Hinesburg s crew are placed in speedy ambulances for transport to hospitals all over the region. Many survivors are in critical condition, and doctors rush every known remedy in efforts to bring relief for their suffering. Several persons make miraculous escapes from the blazing ship. The dirigible lies upon the field, a twisted, useless mass of smoke-blackened girders, as the united states department of commerce launches an inquiry to determine the cause of the disaster.
