Fishing Boats (1)

Bridlington, Yorkshire.—On the morn- ing of the 7th of February, 1955, the weather worsened while fourteen local fishing boats were at sea, and at ten o'clock the life-boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield II was launched, with an ex- coxswain in charge. The sea was rough, a south-south-west gale was blowing, and it was an hour before low water. The life-boat escorted all the boats to the harbour and reached her station again at 2.19.—Rewards, £16 4s. 6d..
