The Motor Coble Resolution

Whitby, Yorkshire.—On the 27th of January, 1950, it was reported that the local motor coble Resolution, with a crew of three, was overdue. The life- boat Mary Ann Hepworth was launched at 2.40 in the afternoon in a calm sea with a light southerly wind and started to search in a thick haze. She found the coble two and a half miles to the northward and escorted her home, arriving at 5.15.—Rewards, £9 2*. 6d..
