Bridlington, Yorkshire.—About 12.45 in the afternoon of the 17th of Nov- ember, 1949, information was received that three local fishing vessels were at sea and that the weather was worsen- ing. The life-boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield, was launched at 1.12 and, in a heavy sea, with a moderate south- south-east gale blowing, stood-by off the harbour entrance. One of the fishing vessels had reached the harbour unaided, and the life-boat escorted in Our Confidence. Then she sighted the other vessel, the Margaret, put out again, and escorted her in, reaching her station again at three o'clock. The Coastguard Life-saving Appliances crews manned the North and South piers during the service.—Rewards, £11 19*..
