Teesmouth, Yorkshire.—At ten o'clock on the night of the 19th of November, 1952, the Redcar coastguard tele- phoned that he had fired a rocket to warn a vessel that she was heading for Salt Scar Rocks. The vessel did not seem to understand the signal, for she did not alter course, and at 11.25 the life-boat John and Lucy Cordingley was launched in a rough sea with a moderate north-easterly gale blowing.

She came up with the motor vessel Anna Henny, of Groningen, near the slag reef in Coatham Bay, escorted her to the river Tees, where a pilot boarded her, and arrived back at her station at 1.40 early the next morning.— Rewards, £12 16,?..
