His plane crashed near Seaham Hall due to engine trouble. Here is a first-hand account from Valerie Trigg who lived at her grandparent\u2019s farm at Seaham Grange during the 1940s:<\/p><p><i>Early one morning there was a bang and my uncles, Frank &amp; Douglas Davidson, ran outside to see if something was wrong with the tractor. They returned saying there was a parachutist coming down. They grabbed the rifles hanging above the scullery door, and ran out. Bailing out of a crashing plane, he shouted, \u2018Don\u2019t shoot, Polish!\u2019 Eventually my uncles returned with the limping Polish airman between them. He was taken to the telephone to ring his headquarters. After being given refreshments by Aunty Mary, he gave her a Polish ribbon. A very large service ambulance arrived to take him away.
