A Small Boat (1)

Moelfre, Anglesey.—On the 15th July four visitors, two men and two women, put out in a small boat from Benllech.

A moderate S.W. breeze was blowing, with a moderate sea. The boat soon got out of control and was carried away from land into rough water. Luckily, she was seen from the shore, and the motor life-boat G.W> was launched toher help at 4.5 P.M. The life-boat came up with her about two and a half miles S.S.E. of the life-boat station, took her in tow and brought her back. The life-boat returned to her station at 4.50 P.M.—Rewards, £5 5s. 6d..
