Morning Star
Fleetwood, Lancashire.—At 1.30 early on the morning of the 18th of Decem- ber, 1954, the Formby coastguard reported that a fishing boat had wire- lessed that she was standing by the fishing boat Morning Star, of Rothesay, which had run ashore at the North Wharf. At two o'clock the life-boat Ann Letitia Russell was launched in a rough sea. A strong south-westerly breeze was blowing, and it was three hours after low water. The life-boat found the Morning Star covered by the sea one mile west by south of the Wyre Light. After making two attempts, the life-boat rescued her crew of two from the water. She then returned to her station, arriving at three o'clock. The owner of the Morning Star expressed his thanks.— Rewards, £11 15s..
