Being Interested In Their Construction, I Was About To Institute A Thorough Examination Of All Its Parts, When The Aeronaut Announced That All Was Ready. He Inquired Whether I Desired To Go Up Alone, Or He Should Accompany Me. My Desire, If Frankly Expressed, Would Have Been Not To Go Up At All; But If I Was To Go, Company Was Certainly Desirable. With An Attempt At Indifference, I Intimated That He Might Go Along.
