Victory

On the 4th November, when the local motor fishing boat Victory was at sea, the weather broke and freshened with a gale from the eastward. A heavy sea was run- ning. A watch was kept, and at 1.30 P.M., when the Victory was seen in the offing, the motor life-boat Stanhope Smart was launched. She met the Victory some distance out and escorted her into harbour. She returned to her station at 2.15 P.M.—Rewards, £955..
