Colonel P.H. Fawcett
Colonel P.H. Fawcett, famous British explorer who disappeared into the trackless wilds of the Brazilian jungles. The British Consul General has announced a most definite clue as to the whereabouts of Fawcett and his son, John, who accompanied him on the trip in 1925. Stephen Rattin, a jungle trapper told the Consul here that he conversed with a man claiming to be Fawcett, at an Indian encampment approximately six weeks journey from Sao Paulo. Fawcett was seeking a superior white Indian civilization in the mountainous interior country, the land "from which no one ever comes back."
