Great Yarmouth and Gorleston, Norfolk.

—On the afternoon of the 25th March the coastguard reported that a vessel north of the harbour was blowing for help. A moderate N.E. breeze was blowing, with a moderate sea, and there was a dense fog. The motor life-boat John and Mary Meiklam of Gladswood was launched at 3.44 P;M., and found the motor vessel Apricity, of London, aground on North Bank. The Apricity was bound, laden, from the Tyne to Norwich. At her captain's request the life-boat stood by. With the flowing tide the Apricity went astern on her engines and floated off. The life-boat continued to stand by until it was learned that she was not leaking, and then made for home. She arrived back at her station at 7.30 P.M.— Rewards, £34 5s..
