Aldeburgh, Suffolk.—At 12.45 P.M. on the 19th August, 1938, the coastguard telephoned to the life-boat station that a sailing yacht was anchored three miles south of the look-out in a dangerous position. A strong and increasing S.S. W.

wind was blowing, with a very rough sea. The motor life-boat Abdy Beauclerk was launched at 1.7 P.M. and found the sailing yacht Sunshine, of Boston, bound for Harwich, with a crew of four on board, making very heavy weather. The life-boat took her in tow and brought her into Southwold Harbour. She got back to her station at 6.45 P.M. The skipper was very grateful for her help and the owner made a donation to the Institution.— Rewards, £15 8s..
