Weymouth, Dorset.—On the morning of the 31st October it was learned that a man in a small fishing boat was trying, unsuccessfully, to make harbour.

A whole north-easterly gale was blowing, with a very rough sea.

The motor Gfe-boat William and Clara Ryland put out at 9.40 A.M., and found the boat S.W. of Stone pier. The man had been pulling against wind and sea, and was exhausted. The life-boat towed the boat into harbour, andreturned to her station at 10.40 A.M.— Rewards, £6 13s..
