CLARENCE ELLIOT cemetery #83 (caption of UPI diagram): Path of a plane crash. A rented single- engine plane crashed into two fog-shrouded apartment buildings yesterday in Chicago. The pilot Clarence Elliot, 30, of Kiel, Wis. and his passenger, Charles Brickner, of Sheboygan, Wis. both were killed. There were no other casualties. Plane bumps buildings in fatal crash. Chicago (AP) - "First there was the sound of an explosion, crashing, then I saw debris flying past our bedroom window," an apartment dweller said after a private plane hit his high-rise building in dense fog. Everett S. Carlson, whose apartment was hit first by the plane, continued, "I ran into the living room and called to my wife, 'Don't come in here. The living room's gone'." The crash Wednesday in Chicago's highly populated North Side took the lives of the two men in the plane, Clarence Elliott, 28, of Kiel, Wis., and Charles Brickner, 38, of Sheboygan Falls, Wis. Elliott, pilot of the rented plane, was assistant sales manager of the Lake-to-Lake Dairy Cooperative of Manitowoc, Wis., and Brickner was a salesman for the firm. Each of the men had five children. The crash occurred about five minutes after the plane took off from Meigs Field, Chicago's lakefront airport, at 7:23 a.m. Elliott had more than 11 years of flying experience, a spokesman fro the dairy cooperative said. Flying in fog, the plane brushed the corner of one apartment building at the 16th floor level, ricocheted, and scraped along the side of another apartment building at a slightly lower level before plunging into a vacant lot across the street. The impact tore the plane apart. Sections of the plane laned on Sherian Road, crowded with cars carrying commuters downtown. No one was injured. Daniel Comferford, control tower supervisor at Meigs, said he believed that Elliott suddenly encountered the fog, and, "as any good pilot would do under the circumstances" attempted to turn around and return to the field. The Chronicle Telegram, Elyria OH, Thurs. Feb. 16, 1967, p. 3, c. 4 *********** Kiel Pilot Had No Instrument Flying Rating. Chicago (AP) - A deputy coroner, a pilot for 28 years, criticized Federal Aviation Agency regulations Wednesday at an inquest into the deaths of two Wisconsin men in a light airplane crash. The coroner's jury decided the deaths of Clarence Elliot, 35, of Kiel, Wis., and his passenger, Charles Brickner, 39, of Sheboygan Falls, on Feb. 15, were accidental. Five minutes after takeoff from Meigs Field on Chicago's lake front, the plane hit two high-rise apartment buildings in the Edgewater Beach neighborhood to the north. Deputy coroner John Haigh, a flier since 1939, testified Elliot had logged only 414 flight hours and lacked an instrument flying rating. Thick fog on the day of the crash warranted instrument maneuvering, Haigh declared. The deputy related that Elliot had obtained flight clearance under FAA visual flight rules requiring only one-mile visibility at takeoff. He said weather reports indicated 2 1/2-mile visibility and a 500-foot ceiling at Meigs Field "although scattered curtains of fog were prevalent in the area of the crash." "All Elliot had to do was to ask for the visual flight ruling clearance and wait his turn," Haigh testified. He said weather reports indicated a possiblity of turbulent weather, fog, haze and ice. The witness said Elliot was estimated to have been flying at 160 feet although regulations required him to be at 1,000. "It was definitely instrument weather because of the restricted visibilities," Haigh said. "The visual flight rules were set up for persons who have instrument ratings." Elliot's brother, Allen, of Centralia, Ill., testified, "There was no reason why my brother had to get home in a hurry." The men were en route to Wisconsin. Manitowoc Herald Times, Thurs.

WILLIAM E. ELLIOTT (d. 1925) cemetery #44 DEATH COMES TO W.E. ELLIOTT TODAY VETERAN CHIEF ENGINEER OF GOODRICH LINE Well Known Resident of City Passes Away After Long Illness Death which came to him at the family home on St. Clair street at 6 o'clock this morning brought to a close the long and active life of William E. Elliott, for fifty years chief engineer of the Goodrich transit company and at his death consulting engineer of the line, although retired. The death of Mr. Elliott was peaceful and came as result of a decline which he had suffered for several months and which his advanced age made it impossible for him to combat. Funeral services for Mr. Elliott will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the First Presbyterian church, the Rev. M.S. Weber officiating. The body will be taken to the church at 10 Wednesday morning to lie in state until the funeral service. A request made by Mr. Elliott that the male quartette of the Kiwanis club, of which he was a charter member, sing at the funeral, will be complied with. The death of Mr. Elliott, while not unexpected, comes as a shock to the community in which he had resided for more than thirty years and where he has been one of the most beloved citizens, admired and respected by all for the high ideals and sterling character which he possessed. Although in late years, because of illness and age, denied the activities of former years, Mr. Elliott up to his last illness was a familiar figure at the gatherings of organizations with which he was affiliated and which at all times on those occasiosn paid tribute in honoring him. Elks Pay Him Honor An indication of the high regard to which Mr. Elliott was held was manifested by the Manitowoc Lodge of Elks, of which he was a charter member, at a meeting a month ago when he was unanimously voted a life membership in the order by the lodge. On the occasion of a visit of Grant Exalted Ruler Atwell of the Elks to the city recently Mr. Elliott was unable to be present because of illness and it was a great disappointment to him when he was forced to send regrets. He was one of the oldest members of Manitowoc lodge and none in the organization commanded a greater love than he. A Native of England Mr. Elliott was a native of England, born in 1840 at Nottinghamshire and came to America in 1854 when his parents located at London, Canada where he received his early education. His service as an engineer in which he achieved national fame, was ushered in when he entered the employ of the Great Western Railway company, with which he remained for six years. Later he was associated with the Detroit Locomotive Works for two years. In July 1863 Mr. Elliott entered upon what proved to be his life career and achievement of prominence when he secured a berth as assistant engineer of a new steamer, Reindeer, on the Saginaw river. The following year he was appointed assistant engineer of the steamship Milwaukee between Grand Haven and Milwaukee and in 1865 became chief engineer of the Ward line. When the Goodrich Transit company purchased the steamer Alpena Mr. Elliott became chief engineer and was in charge of the boat for one season. In 1868 he located at Milwaukee and 1894 removed to Chicago, retaining his connection with the Goodrich company whose boat, the steamer Sheboygan, he was chief of for four seasons and was then appointed chief engineer of the entire line. Directed Building of Boats In his capacity as chief engineer Mr. Elliott superintended the building of many boats of the Goodrich fleet including the Chicago, DePere, City of Racine, Indiana, Iowa and Georgia and directed the placing of machinerys in all of the boats. For many years Mr. Elliott devoted his work to building of boats for the company and directing the improvements which from time to time were added. A Popular Official Old employes of the Goodrich company today said that there had never been a more popular official in the directory of the company than Mr. Elliott. He was always faithful, always courteous, always true and always a gentleman and his character and ideals fitted in with a life whose passing brings to all who knew him more intimately a keen sorrow in a sense of a real loss to them personally. Always a close and hard worker Mr. Elliott up to the very time of his retirement gave his energy to perfecting improvements in marine engineering and many of his ideas are today featured in machinery of boats not only on the lakes but in ocean traffic as well. He was prominent as a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the American Society of Naval Engineers, and of the Marine Engineers Beneficial Association of which later organization he was nation vice president. Locally Mr. Elliot was a charter member of the Elks of this city ???? the Kiwanis club in both organizations of which he took an (the last two sentences are unreadable) organizations was missed by Mr. Elliott up to the time of his critical illness and he was always called upon at these gatherings for talks. Mr. Elliott is survived by his widow whom he married after the death of his former wife and whose two sons of a former marriage were given Mr. Elliott's name after the union, L.J. Elliott of Chicago and S.S. Elliott of Panama. Mr. Elliott was a personal friend of the late A.W. Goodrich, founder of the Goodrich Transportation company, and of his son who succeeded as head of the company and was intimate with the late Capt. D.M. Cochrane, another veteran official of the Goodrich line whose death occurred about a year ago. Members of the Elks and the Kiwanis club will attend the funeral on Wednesday in a body.
