Peterfcead, Aber^eenshire.—At 12.30 A.M. on the 26th August, 1939, a message was received from the relatives of two men on board the motor fishing boat Sarah Ross, of Peterhead, that they were overdue. A light N.W. breeze was blowing, with a ground swell, and the weather was very foggy. As the fog was clearing it was decided to wait and see whether the Sarah Ross could make harbour, but as she was still missing at 2 A.M. the motor life-boat Julia Park Barry, of Glasgow, was launched. She was unable to find anything, and returned to harbour at 6.45A.M. The boat had not arrived. The life-boat left again at 7.30 A.M., and this time found the missing boat, with her engine broken down, eight miles south of Buchanness. She towed her to harbour, arriving at 11 A.M.—Rewards, £12 19s..
