Stornoway, Outer Hebrides.—At ten o'clock in the morning of the 29th of June, 1952, a message was received from the agents of the S.S. Belfri, of Oslo, that she was making for Storno- way with a woman aboard who was seriously ill. The sea was rough and a fresh south-westerly breeze was blowing, so it was decided to send out the life-boat William and Harriot.

She left at 11.30, met the Belfri—which was in ballast and bound for New- foundland from the Tyne—about three miles from Arnish Lighthouse, and brought ashore the woman, a steward- ess, at 1.45 that afternoon.—Rewards, £3 16s..
