Dainty Lady

Bridlington, Yorkshire.—On the after- noon of the 16th of February, 1951, the local motor fishing vessel Dainty Lady was at sea. A fresh south-south- easterly breeze was blowing and there was a very heavy swell. At 1.5 the Dainty Lady wirelessed that she was approaching Flamborough Head, in bad weather. It was decided to send out the life-boat. Accordingly, at 1.27 the life-boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield was launched, escorted the Dainty Lady into harbour and returned to her station arriving at two o'clock.—Rewards, £11 8s..
