SOLITARY WATCHMAN RESCUED Falmouth, Cornwall.—At 6.10 in the evening of the 16th of March, 1947, the motor life-boat Crawford and Con- stance Conybeare was launched to a ship on the rocks at St. Just, Falmouth Harbour. A strong westerly gale was blowing with a very rough sea. The life-boat found the American steamer Southlands, with only a watchman on board. She took him off and landed him at Custom House-Pier, returning to her station again at 7.30.—Rewards, £7 8s..
