Ramsey, Isle of Man.—At 8.35, on the evening of the 24th of July, 1950, the palice reported that a boy had fallen over the 400 feet cliffs at Maug- hold Head. He was so seriously injured that he could not be carried up the cliff. The life-boat Thomas Corbett was therefore launched at 8.45 in a smooth sea and a light south- westerly breeze, with a doctor andnurse on board and a small boat in tow. She landed the doctor and nurse on a rocky beach. When they had examined the boy, he was taken off, and the life-boat returned, arriving at 10.25. The motor fishing boat Pearl also went to the scene of the accident.
