.— At 10.40 A.M. on the 4th April it was reported that a boat was being blown out to sea with one man in her. It appeared that he had put off from Amlwch, and when about a mile out his mast was carried away, and having only one oar he was unable to pull ashore. He waved his cap for assistance, and the coxswain of the Life-boat James Oullen launched the Life-boat and proceeded after the boat.

On reaching her the man was taken into the Life-boat, and with the boat in tow she returned to her station..
