Yarmouth, Isle of Wight.—At 11.10 in the morning of the 17th of February, 1948, the motor life-boat S.G.E. put out, with a doctor on board, to the s.s.

Coral Sea, of New York, bound in ballast from Southampton to New Orleans, U.S.A., which had signalled that she wanted immediate medical help. A fresh east-south-east wind was blowing, with a choppy sea. At noon the life-boat returned with a sick man on board, and he was sent at once to the Ryde hospital.—Rewards, £7 8*..
