Great Yarmouth and Gorleston, Norfolk.

—At 9.18 on the morning of the 4th of February, 1951, the Gorleston coast- guard reported that the S.S. Flamma had sent a message asking for a doctor.

At 10.10 the life-boat Louise Stephens was launched, with a doctor on board, in a fresh southerly gale and very rough sea. She found the vessel half a mile north of the harbour. The life-boat put the doctor aboard with difficulty and then embarked him again, and the sick man. Then she sent a wireless message for an ambulance, which was waiting when the life-boat returned to her station at 11.18.—-Rewards, £19 8s. Qd..
