—At 6.30 in the evening of the 17th of July, 1949, the coastguard telephoned that a barge was ashore on the Caister Shoal, and the life-boat Louise Stephens was launched at 6.40 in a light northerly breeze with a slight sea. She found the sailing barge Will Everard, of London, and stood by until she refloated with- out help at 10.25 that night. The life-boat then returned to her station, arriving there at eleven o'clock.— Rewards, £17 6s, 6d..
