A Fishing Coble

Flamborough, Yorkshire.—On the afternoon of the 18th of November, 1952, a local fishing coble was known to be at sea in bad weather, but noth- ing could be seen of her. At 2.45 the life-boat Howard D was launched. The sea was rough with a moderate easterly breeze. The life-boat found the coble about three miles north-east of Flam- borough Head making for home. She escorted her to Flamborough and reached her station again at four o'clock.—Rewards, £13 18s. 6d..
