The Cromer Lightvessel
Cromer, Norfolk.—At 11.25 on the morning of the 2nd of October, 1954, the Superintendent of Trinity House at Yarmouth asked if the life-boat would fetch a very sick man from the Cromer lightvessel. At 11.40 the No. 1 life- boat Henry Blogg was launched. There was a slight swell and a light south- westerly breeze, and the tide was ebbing. The life-boat took on board the patient, who was suffering from a perforated duodenal ulcer, and land- ed him at Cromer at 3.30. He was transferred to Cromer hospital at once and his life was saved.—Rewards, £19 6s. Refunded to the Institution by Trinity House..
