Rhyl, Flintshire.—At 2.25 on the afternoon of the 5th of July, 1953, the coastguard rang up to say that the Abergele police had reported that a small boat had capsized off Llandulas, and that her crew of two were swim- ming towards Abergele. At 2.42 the life-boat Anthony Robert Marshall was launched and made for the position in a slight sea with a light south-south- west breeze blowing. One of the men came ashore at Pensarn, but his com- panion disappeared. The life-boat did not find him, but came up with the upturned ten-feet pram dinghy Turtle half a mile north-east of Abergele.

She took the dinghy on board and returned to her station, arriving at 5.45. The missing man's body was washed ashore later. — Rewards, £14 195..
