At 3.55 P.M. on the 14th October the life-boat was called out to the help of the lighter Scarborough, which was employed in connexion with the building of a new life-boat slipway, and which had sprung a leak. The motor life-boat Greater London (Civil Service No. 3) was launched at 4.20 P.M. in a moderate westerly gale, with a heavy sea, and found the lighter sinking with her crew of three at the pumps. She towed the lighter to shallow water near the beach and returned to her station at 5.20 P.M.—Rewards, £8 16s. 6d..
