Ross Corr

Valentia, Co. Kerry.—At 4.40 on the afternoon of the 12th of March, 1954, the Valentia radio station reported that the motor trawler Ross Corr, of Dublin, which had a crew of five, had broken down four miles south-east of Blasket Island. At five o'clock the life-boat A.E.D. put out. The sea was moderate with a fresh south- easterly breeze blowing. The lifeboat towed the Ross Corr to Valentia harbour and reached her station again at 7.15.—Rewards, £9 7*..
