Hastings, Sussex.—The motor life-boat Cyril and Lilian Bishop was launched at 8.17 A.M. on the 18th November t6 search for the local open fishing boat Little Culverden, which was missing. A strong N. breeze was blowing, with a rough sea. The life-boat found the Little Culverden riding to an anchor about two and a half miles south from St. Leonards pier. Her engines had broken down, she was half full of water, and the two men on board were exhausted.

The life-boat towed her back to Hastings, and returned to her station at 9.40 A.M.—Rewards, £19 2s. 3d..
