Ramsgate, Kent.—On the evening of the 16th May, the coastguard telephoned that the police had reported two men cut off by the tide in Pegwell bay. A gentle east breeze was blowing, and the sea was smooth. The motor life-boat City of Bradford, on relief duty at Ramsgate, put out at 6.55 P.M. and found that four men out fishing had got marooned on a dolphin, marking the River Stour. Their boat had drifted away and was ashore in the river.

The life-boat fetched the boat for them, and returned to her station at 7.55 P.M.—Rewards, £5 8s..
