  The very strange circumstances of Berteaux's death can be found here: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9A01E6D81031E2... See also: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=FA0B17F93B5517738...

  The accident occurred on May 21, 1911. This photo was taken at the funeral, on May 26, 1911. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9407EFD81031E233A... Here is another Bain/LOC photo -- this one showing Monis, who was at the field, and was injured in the mishap. Perhaps this was taken before the accident? www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2162678253/in/p...
