During the morning of 12th February, while four boats were at sea line fishing and crab catching, a heavy sea got up at the back of the pier, which made it dangerous for the boats to enter the harbour. The weather was very cold with snow showers and a moderate easterly wind blowing. At 11.20 A.M. the Motor Life- boat Herbert Joy II. was launched, found the coble Our Maggie and the keel-boat Albatross at the back of the pier and escorted them into the harbour.

The Life-boat again put to sea at about 2 P.M., met the boats Gloria of Bridling- ton and Fife's Own one and a half miles east of Scarborough and escorted them to safety.-—Rewards, £20 3s..
