Sennen Cove, Cornwall.—At 8.15 in the morning of the 26th of October, 1948, the coastguard telephoned that a message had been received from the tug Superman asking for the life-boat to take four men off a sinking hulk three miles south of the Longships Lighthouse. The motor life-boat Susan Ashley was launched at 8.33. The northerly breeze was moderate, but there was a heavy ground swell. The life-boat found the fore-part of the S.S. Empire Flamingo with four men on board. She had broken away from the tugs Superman and Airman, while being taken, from Arromanches to Newport for breaking up. She was foundering in the heavy seas. The life- boat rescued the four men and made for Newlyn. On the way she received a wireless message that the hulk had sunk. She landed the rescued men at Newlyn and returned to her station, arriving at 1.10 that afternoon.— Rewards, £21 4s..
