Donaghadee, Co. Down.—At 6.15 onthe evening of the 29th of March, 1954, the Orlock Head coastguard rang up to say that a keeper in the Maidens lighthouse was ill. He asked if the life-boat would take a relief man to it and land the patient. At 6.25 the life-boat Sir Samuel Kelly put out in a heavy ground swell, with a strong southerly breeze blowing. She made first for Larne, where she took on board a relief keeper. She brought him to the lighthouse and then landed the sick man at Larne, reaching her station again at 1.30 early on the 30th.—Rewards, £16 12s..
