ROADS BLOCKED WITH SNOW Lerwick, Shetland.—At 10.55 on the night of the 5th of March, 1947, a doctor who was urgently needed for a maternity case at Aithsetter, asked the life-boat to take him as the roads were impassable. A moderate north-easterly breeze was blowing, with a choppy sea, when the motor life-boat Lady Jane and Martha Ryland left at 11.43. She landed the doctor at Aithsetter by means of a small boat. Two hours later, after a girl had been born, the small boat brought him back to the life-boat, and she arrived at Lerwick at 3.46 next morning.—Rewards, £11, /which were paid by the Dspartment of Health for Scotland..
