Brooklyn druggist George S. Peduzzi, who launched a self built balloon from Capitol grounds with no experience, landed near Oyster Bay after a chaotic descent. He sustained a severe head bruise and a wrenched knee and remains bedridden in Brooklyn for about two more weeks. He described the ascent as smooth until ballast loss caused trouble and a lower descent through trees and a fence followed a cable snap.
