Miss Gladys Crook, the principal of the school. said it came to her knowledge that when Tunstall was leaving the school he stopped a young man in Air Force uniform and inquired about the nearest place where he could charter a private aeroplane.
Tunstall, in the witness-box, said that he went to the school to bid the child good-bye, as he was due to sail at midnight yesterday, and would not return for d long time.
