Barra Island, Outer Hebrides.—At 6.20 on the evening of the 30th of Novem- ber, 1954, a man at Northbay tele- phoned that a Northbay fishing boat with a crew of two was long overdue.He asked if the life-boat would search for her. At 7.10 the life-boat Lloyd's put out in a rough sea, with a fresh south-westerly breeze blowing. She searched groups of islands around Northbay and at 8.45 found the fishing boat at the island of Hamish. The life-boat towed her to Northbay and then returned to her station, arriving at 3.15.—Rewards, £21 3s..
