Intervale, New Hampshire – September 9, 1949

     At about 9:00 p.m. on the night of September 19, 1949, two men from White River Junction, Vermont, were in a small airplane circling the unincorporated area of Intervale, New Hampshire.  The circling aircraft was noticed by a state trooper who assumed the pilot was lost and searching for nearby White Mountain Airport.  The trooper quickly drove to the airport to turn on the lights, but in the meantime the plane crashed in a field.  Both men were seriously injured and transported to Memorial Hospital in Conway.  One of the men succumbed to his injuries the following day.
