Barrow, Lancashire.—At 3.30 in the afternoon of the 12th of June, 1949, the police telephoned a wireless message received that a man had been seriously injured on the London tanker Thattepus, lying three miles south-west of Light- ning Knoll Buoy. At 3.45 the life-boat Elsie, on temporary duty at the station, was launched with a doctor on board, in a light north-westerly breeze with a calm sea. She found that the injured man had died, and brought his body ashore, reaching her station again at 7.30 that evening.—Rewards, £ 10 4#. 6
