Let Mitau Woman Falls to Death in Balloon Accident
Anderson November 2 Mia Maud Broadwick wife of Charles Broadwick aeronaut with Rid dell'a Southern Carnival Company fell from a balloon this afternoon and was instantly killed. She was an experienced balloonist and had made two ascensions. Her husband prepared to ascend and drop parachute signals as she stood by to cut the rope. The balloon rose and she clung to ropes before falling 200 to 400 feet to hard ground. A crowd of about 1000 witnessed the tragedy. Broadwick, who plunged with a parachute, descended safely at a distance higher than the fatal drop. Most Carnival attendees believe the death was an accident rather than foul play.
