Falmouto, Cornwall.—At one o'clock in the morning of the 18th of June, 1948, a woman reported that her hus- band and another man had put out fishing in a motor launch the previous morning and had not returned. At 1.30 the motor life-boat Crawford and Con- stance Conybeare was launched, and searched widely in a strong south- westerly breeze, with a rough sea.

Eventually she found the launch moored in St. Mawes Creek. She had run out of petrol. The life-boat took her in tow and arrived back at her station at 5 o'clock.—Rewards, £8 10s..
