Newcastle, Co. Down.—At 8.55 on the morning of the 3rd of March, 1951, the Kilkeel coastguard telephoned that the S.S. Slieve More, of London, was ashore at Derryogue two miles south-west of Kilkeel. At 9.15 the life-boat William and Laura was launched. There was a swell, with a fresh south-easterly breeze blowing, and fog. At the request of the steamer's master, the life-boat stood by the Slieve More until high water. At 7.25 that night the steamer refloated and the life-boat returned to her station, arriving at 9.30.—Rewards, £87 10s..
