LT. ROOSEVELT SAVED, CABLE TO FATHER
Oyster Bay, July 19.—News that Quentin Roosevelt, son of Col. Roosevelt, has been received here from France. It is assumed that Lieut. Roosevelt was saved behind the German lines. Lieut. Roosevelt was forced to land two days ago, his companions of the air reporting that from all appearances he had been killed. It now develops that Lieut Roosevelt was seen to land safely by one of his colleagues in the aviation corps. The following cablegram was received at the Roosevelt home tonight from Dr. Richard Derby, who married a sister of the young aviator: “A companion aviator confident Quentin landed unhurt. lam convalescing here with Eleanor, Archie and Kermit.”
