30 SEPTEMBER 1916, Page 3
The fall of the Zeppelin was again greeted with shouts
and cheers of delight, but owing to the ship falling at a much greater distance from London, the sightseers were not so numerous, nor had they so good a view. The scene, however, was witnessed from a great many craft in the river, which are said to have hooted and whistled with delight, while motor-horns and fog-horns took up the chorus. Then followed something in the nature of a stampede for the direc- tion in which the ship was believed to have fallen. Everybody who had a bicycle, a motor-bicycle, or anything that could carry such a distance rushed for the spot.
