Arbroath, Angus.—At 8.45 on the evening of the 26th of October, 1954, the coastguard telephoned that the fishing boat Floreat II was still at sea, and that conditions at the harbour bar were dangerous. The Floreat II wire-lessed that she would arrive off the harbour about eleven o'clock, and at ten o'clock the life-boat Howard D was launched to stand by at the bar. The sea was very rough, a gale was blowing from south-south-east, and it was three hours after low water. The fishing boat arrived shortly afterwards, and the life-boat escorted her to the har- bour, reaching her station again at 10.30.—Rewards, £8 2s. Gd..
