ON THE WHITBY BAR AGAIN Whitby. Yorkshire.—At 8.45 in the morning of the 2nd of May, 1947, a small motor coble was seen approaching.

The tide was one hour before low water and there was broken water for three hundred yards outside the harbour entrance, making it dangerous. The pulling life-boat Jacob and Rachael Vallentine was launched at nine o'clock and after warning the coble, the Floral.

Queen, escorted her into harbour. She then stood by the harbour bar until 11.30, escorted in the coble Royal Empire, and stood by while seven keel boats came in. She returned to her station at 12.15 in the afternoon.— Rewards, £15 8s..
