Dennis

Flamborough, Yorkshire.—At 9.55 on the morning of the 22nd of September, 1954,the coxswain reported that the local fishing coble Dennis was still at sea and the weather was deteriorating. It was thought that she might be in danger making for the shore, and at 10.5 the life-boat Friendly Forester was launch- ed. The sea was rough, a strong wind was blowing from the north, and the tide was flooding. The life-boat came up with the Dennis, escorted her to the North Landing and reached her station again at 10.25.—Rewards, £10 14s..
