Mona

Llandudno, Caernarvonshire. — On the night of the 6th August the yacht Mona, of Heswall, bound for the Menai Straits with a crew of three, was seen to be riding at anchor in a dangerous position about a mile out of Llandudno bay. A strong N.E. breeze sprang up, and the sea became rough. The yacht did not signal, but at 1.30 A.M. on the 7th the motor life-boat Thomas and Annie Wade Richards was launched.

She took the three men off the yacht, landed them at Conway, and returned to 1ier station at 5 A.M.—Rewards, £15 8s..
