At 9.20 P.M.

on 15th May the Coastguard telephoned that four persons had put out in a rowing boat at three in the afternoon and that the boat had not returned and could not be seen. The crew of the Motor Life-boat William and Clara Ryland were assembled, but as the boat was about to be launched the police brought information that the rowing boat had returned.—Rewards, 17s. 6d..
