THE Spanish Society for Saving the Shipwrecked has named the new Motor Life-boat which it has stationed at Malaga, near Gibraltar, the Sir William Hillary, after the founder of the Institution, Colonel Sir "William Hillary, Bt., who published his appeal for the formation of a national Life-boat Service in 1823, and who himself took part in the rescue of over 300 lives at Douglas, Isle of Man, being three times awarded the Institution's Gold Medal for Ms gallantry. In its resolution naming the Malaga boat the Spanish Society says, " To Sir William Hillary's initiative and sacrifice humanity owes all the Institutions which are unselfishly helping ships in danger. He must rightly be j considered a son of all the countries ; carrying on this International Service, and he deserves that his memory should be venerated with deep gratitude.".
