A Small Boat (2)

Moelfre, Anglesey. — Shortly after noon on the 31st July a small boat, which had put out from Benllech with two men on board, was seen to be in difficulties. A strong S.W. breeze was blowing with a rough sea, and the boat was in great danger. The motor life-boat G.W. put out at 12.30 P.M., and found the boat waterlogged. She could not have remained afloat much longer. The two men were rescued, and their boat was towed back to Moelfre.

The life-boat returned to her station at 1.30 P.M.—Rewards, £5 12s..
