Grosvenor, which was lying off the harbour entrance, had signalled for a doctor to attend to a scalded'man, arid the-motor life-boat J. and W. was launched with a doctor on board at 7.10 in a light breeze and smooth sea. She put him on the steamer, waited while he had attended to the patient, and brought him ashore, returning to her station at 8.30.— Rewards, £11 19s..
