The Codling Lightvessel

Wicklow.—At 11.42 on the night of the 14th of March, 1955, the Com- missioners of Irish Lights rang up to ask if the life-boat would land a man from the Codling lightvessel, as his wife was dangerously ill at Skerries.

At one o'clock on the morning of the 15th the life-boat Lady Kylsant was launched in a choppy sea, with a light south-westerly breeze blowing. She took the man ashore and arrived back at her station at 5.5.—Rewards, £13 16s.
