W Moelfre, Anglesey. — On the 2nd August a party of six put out in a rowing boat from Benllech. They lost their oars. The owner of the boat, seeing this, went after them in another boat.

He reached them, and got aboard with his own oars, taking his second boat in tow. With the boat overloaded he could make no progress against the strong S.W. wind and rough sea, and was blown out to sea.

The motor life-boat G.W. was launched at 12.30 P.M. and came up with the boats, about three miles N.E. of Moelfre Island, when they were nearly sinking. The seven people were taken into the life-boat, and the two boats towed to shore. The rescued party, who were visitors from Manchester, expressed their thanks for the kind and prompt help given them.—Rewards, £5 185..
