who had left harbour alone in the early hours to line-fish, had not returned.

He was seventy-four years old. The motor life-boat Sarah Ward and William David Crosweller . was launched at 11 o'clock in a strong north-westerly breeze with a rough sea. She found the boat drifting seawards between six and seven miles to the southward, rescued the man and, with his boat in tow, arrived back at her station at 1 o'clock that afternoon.—Rewards, £7 Is. 6d..
