Grace Stuart

Girvan, Ayrshire.—At 3.15 in the afternoon, on the 19th of January, 1951, the coxswain saw the local motor fishing boat Grace Stuart approaching the har- bour. There was a heavy sea across the bar with a north-westerly breeze, and it was thought advisable for the life- boat to put out. At 3.30, then, the life-boat Lily Glen—Glasgow left her moorings, stood by the Grace Stuart until she entered harbour, and then returned to her station, arriving at 5.O.—Rewards, £7 8*..
