Thurso, Caithness-shire.—At 12.50 P.M.

on the 2nd November Wick coastguard reported that they had received a wireless message from the master of the tug Warrior, of Glasgow—which was towing the ferry steamer Snowdrop, of Liverpool, to ship-breakers at Bo'ness —that one of his crew had been seriously hurt. A squally W.S.W. breeze was blowing, with a heavy swell, and heavy rain. The motor life-boat H.C.J. put out at 1.5 P.M., took off the injured man, whose right thigh had been broken, and landed him at Thurso, where a doctor was waiting. The master of the tug had also asked for a life-boatman to be put on board to pilot him into Scrabster, and this had been done. After landing the injured man the life-boat returned to the vessels, and escorted them into Scrabster, where they dropped anchor at 11.30 P.M. The life-boat returned to her station at midnight.—Rewards, £21 12s. 6d..
