Bervor

Troon, Ayrshire.-—At 7.50 in the evening, on the 25th of September, 1950, a message was received from Irvine that a yacht had broken down off Irvine harbour and could not get in. So, at 8.15, the life-boat Sir David Richmond, of Glasgozv, was launched in a choppy sea, with a fresh northerly breeze blowing. She found the auxiliary yacht Bervor, of Irvine, with a crew of two, half a mile north of Irvine Bar, and towed her to harbour. Then she returned to her station, arriving at ten o'clock.—Rewards, £5 Is..
