Aviator Bond Found in Monte Carlo.

Godfrey Levington Bond, a New Guinea aviator, who was returning via Singapore to his home in Eng land for Christmas, and disappeared after having been seen on the Rome- Calais express, was found in a Monte Carlo apartment house at the end of February, suffering from loss of memory.

His wife, an actress, who is appear ing in London in A. P. Herbert’s new opera, “Derby Day,” said it was clear

that her husband had been at Monte Carlo ever since he disappeared.

Bond was supposed to be in possession of a considerable quantity of gold dust, and his wife said she did not know whether he still had it. An uncle liv ing at Nice took the man home.

Bond used to fly between Salamoa and the Edie Creek goldfields. He left New Guinea in November to spend Christmas in England with his wife and child.

Bond was known in aviation circles in Salamaua, Lae and Wau, but did not appear to have any regular connection with aviation. He was not —as previ ously described —a pilot in the regular goldfields service.
