Miss Caroline Georgina Harvey, of Tenby
A VERY generous friend of the Life-boat Services of Great Britain and Norway passed away by the death on the llth November last, at the age of seventy- five, of Miss Caroline Georgina Harvey, of Tenby, Pembrokeshire. She had lived there for thirty years, and while she was very generous in her help to many charities, her chief interest was the welfare of the Tenby Life-boat crew. She was for twenty years a member of the Tenby Committee, as well as a generous subscriber. She took also a deep interest in the work of the Norwegian Life-boat Service. For more than forty years she regularly visited Svolvaer in the Lofoten Islands, one of the centres of the great cod fisheries, and won the esteem of the whole population by her philanthropic work among the families of the fisher- men. In 1897 she presented to the Norwegian Life-boat Society the Life-boat Svolvaer, which is still on service. For her distinguished and unselfish work for life-boatmen she was awarded a Gold Medal by the King of Norway and the Gold Badge of the Institution. At the funeral the In- stitution was represented by Com- mander E. D. Drury, O.B.E., R.D., R.N.R., Chief Inspector of Life-boats, the Norwegian Government by the Secretary of its Legation in London, and the Tenby Life-boat Station by its Coxswain and ex-Coxswain..
