Aldeburgh, Suffolk.—On the afternoon of the 19th July the Orfordness coastguard reported that a yacht about eight miles S.W. of Orfordness was flying what appeared to be a signal of distress. A moderate S.W. gale was blowing, with a rough sea and rain squalls. The motor life-boat Abdy Beauckrk was launched at 6 P.M., but found that a Trinity steamer had taken off the crew of three of the yacht—the Day Dream—and was taking the yacht in tow to Harwich. Another yacht was seen about two miles south apparently flying a distress signal, and the life-boat went to her. She was the Raider, of Leigh-on-Sea. The life-boat escorted her in to Harwich, and returned to her station at 4.30 A.M. She had been on service for ten and a half hours. A donation was received from the owner of the Raider.For this long and arduous service an increase in the money award on the standard scale was granted to each member of the crew.—Rewards, £39 4s..
