Missing mail pilot Charles Ames seen near Wesley light
Mercer Pennsylvania October 9 reports say missing mail pilot Charles Ames may be near Wesley, the last light before Mercer. Twelve men under P M Sutherlin searched 3300 acres of forest north and west of Pearl with six mail planes and two army planes, but no trace found. A witness near Perrines Corners claimed Ames' plane was seen Friday morning, supporting a location one mile west of Kilgore, with lights described as exact. Officials believe he reached Wesley on the fatal night, and a $500 Pilots Association reward may draw more searchers as the mystery remains highly puzzling.
