London undergraduate hides aboard liner to South America
Michael Langley, son of Rev H L Langley of Wombourne, fled London to sail for South America aboard the Avila Star. He hid in a lifeboat with provisions, later assisted by ship staff, and was landed at St Vincent before returning to the engine room. The report ties his tale to broader notes on the Big Brother Movement and reform themes.
