Hoylake, Cheshire.—At 5.30 in the evening of the 4th of September, 1951, the life-boat bowman reported that a ship had been seen in a dangerous position about one mile north-west of the Rock Channel's outer buoys. A strong south-westerly breeze was blow- ing, and the sea was rough. Watch was kept on her. She was seen to be anchored and rolling heavilv, and then was identified as the local motor fishing boat Lanie. At 7.35 the life- boat Oldham was launched and found the Lanie three quarters of a mile north-west of R.I Buoy with her engine broken down and one man on board. She towed her to Hoylake and reached her station again at midnight.—Rewards, £17 11s..
