Berwick-on-Tweed, Northumberland.— Late in the evening of the 26th September it was reported that the motor yachtCormorant, of Berwick-on-Tweed, had left Holy Island for Berwick at 6 P.M., but had not arrived. There were seven men on board. A light breeze vras blowing, with a smooth sea, and the weather was thick. At 10.25 P.M. the motor life-boat Westmorland put out to search, and about an hour later found the yacht some six miles S.E.

of Berwick. Her engine had broken down, and the men on board were quite ignorant of their position. The life-boat towed her back to harbour and returned to her station at 12.30 A.M.—Rewards, £9 13s..
