Great Yarmouth and Gorleston, Norfolk.

—At 1.38 on the morning of the 1st of April, 1951, the Gorleston coastguard telephoned a message received through the North Foreland radio station from the S.S. Lord Citrine. She was due in Yarmouth Roads about 3.0 and asked for the life-boat to land a sick man.

At 3.12 the life-boat Louise Stephens was launched in a moderate sea with a moderate south-westerly breeze blow- ing. She came up with the steamer off the harbour, landed the man at Great Yarmouth, where an ambulance was waiting, and reached her station again at 4.45.—Rewards, £8..
