Fishing Vessels

Eyemouth, Berwickshire. — On the morning of the 15th March, 1939, several fishing vessels were returning to harbour. A heavy sea was running in the bay, and the motor life-boat Frank and William Oates was launched at 9.45 A.M. in readiness to help if needed.

She stood by at the pier until the vessels had discharged their catches and left again, and returned ashore at 12.30 P.M.—Rewards, £10 16s..
