The Helwick Lightvessel
Tenby, Pembrokeshire.—At 9.15 in the morning of the 23rd of March, 1952, the Swansea Superintendent of Trinity House asked if the life-boat would fetch a sick man from the Helwick Lightvessel as the Trinity House vessel could not make the trip until the afternoon. At 9.30 the life-boat John R. Webb was launched with a doctor in a moderate south-south-west breeze with a moderate sea running.
She took the sick man on board and landed him at Tenby at 1.35 that afternoon.—Rewards, £21 17s. Re- funded to the Institution by Trinity House..
