Dorothy Lambert

Stornoway, Outer Hebrides.—At 1.8 early on the morning of the 3rd of October, 1954, the coastguard tele- phoned that the trawler Dorothy Lambert, of Fleetwood, had wirelessed that she had gone aground three miles north-west-by-west of Trodday Light, at the north end of Skye. At 1.35 the life-boat The James and Margaret Boyd was launched on service for the first time. There was a moderate sea and a strong southerly breeze. The life-boat stood by the trawler until she refloated, and then returned to Stornoway, arriving at ten o'clock.— Rewards, £20 5s..
