Margate, Kent. — At 11.15 in the morning of the 28th of November, 1948, during a dense fog, the coast- guard rang up to say that the skipper of a motor boat had reported passing the local fishing vessel Kathleen near Longnose Buoy and that her crew of three had said that they had no com- pass. At 1.10 in the afternoon, as the Kathleen had not returned, her owner asked for the help of the life-boat, and at 2.25 the coastguard telephoned that the fishing vessel had last been, seen two miles east of the harbour. At 2.40 the motor life-boat Lord Southborough, Civil Service No. 1 was launched in a light variable breeze with a smooth sea. She found the Kathleen one and a half miles to the eastward steaming seawards, guided her to the harbour and arrived back at her station at 3.15.—Rewards, £10 16s..
