On the morning of the 18th January, the coxswain reported that seven of the local motor fishing cobles were at sea and in danger owing to the very heavy sea. The pulling and sailing life-boat Arthur R. Dawes was launched at 9.15 A.M. and escorted all of the cobles into safety. She returned to her station at 12.30 P.M.—Rewards, £10 14s. 6d..
