Original Toronto Star caption: Faces death. The other day. Amy Mollison (2), publicly announced she did not intend to become a hypocritically tragic widow should her husband, Captain James Mollison (1), be killed, and consequently would divorce her flying career from his. As he awaits Monday, the day set for the take-off on his projected New York to London flight, which, if successful, will be his fourth transatlantic air crossing. [Incomplete]
