Princeton, Maine – June 22, 1973

     On June 22, 1973, a Piper Aztec with two men aboard was expected at Barring Air Strip, (reported to be located about twenty miles south of Princeton, Maine), but when it failed to arrive a search was instituted.  The plane was spotted from the air the following day.  It had crashed in a thickly wooded area off Route 1 in Princeton.  When a contingent of state troopers reached the plane they found the bodies of both men inside.
