A Rowing Boat

Fishguard, Pembrokeshire.—On the morning of the 15th of July, 1950, two men from Cwmyreglwys were out in a rowing boat attending to their lobster pots. At ten o'clock the coastguard reported them well overdue, and later said they were on the rocks near Dinas Head. At 11.10 the life-boatWhite Star was launched in a moderate sea with a strong southerly breeze and heavy rain. She picked up the two men and towed the rowing boat to Cwmyreglwys, returning to her station at ten minutes past one in the after- noon.—Rewards, £8 2*..
