TRAPPED IN CABIN

By Telegraph.—Press Association. Auckland, January 28.

Trapped in the cabin of a launch when a primus stove exploded, Mr. A. E. Byron, of Ponsonby, groped his way out through flames, but was fairly severely burned. The flames -leaped towards the engine, and while he was beating them out leaking petrol from a drum in the cockpit caught alight, and Byron found his escape blocked. He had, however, prevented the flames from reaching the engine and the fuel tank, and with the aid of an extinguisher he minimised the damage to the cockpit and galley.
