ΤΟ · COURT-MARTIAL ASKS FOR CLEMENCY
THERE was a moment of dramatic suspense followed by
surprise at the R.A.F. General Court-Martial at Gos-
SEEDS
port, where Lieut. Guy Kennedy Horsey, R.N., pilot of the Flowers plane, was being tried on two charges, following his crash on the deck of the Normandie off Ryde, Isle of Wight, on June 22.
The evidence closed, the speeches finished, the Court resumed in open session after sitting in camera for nearly an hour.
The Deputy Judge Advocate-General, Mr. C. L. Stirling, quietly intimated now that the Court had "no findings to an
nounce."
Licut-Colonel F. N. Syma (for the defence) was immediately offered the opportunity to address the Court in mitigation of punishment.
This was the first intimation of the tribunal's decision.
"DANGEROUS POSITION"
Lieut.-Colonel Syms made a brief address and the Deputy Judge
Advocate read a remarkable document-a letter from the owners of the liner to the Secretary of the Admiralty, making "a very strong appeal for the clemency of the Court to be exerelsed" in Lieutenant Horsey's favour.
The letter said (in part);"
"I do not wish to appear to be interfering with the process of the due course of justice, but we desire to say we think that the accident was due to his being unable to extricate himself from a dangerous position."
The announcement that the findings of the Court will be promulgated "I can't get away from her." he in due course followed. The proceedings were over,
