Holyhead, Anglesey.—At 5.26 on the evening of the llth of April, 1955, the coastguard telephoned that the light- keepers at the Breakwater lighthouse had signalled that they had recovered the body of a twelve-year-old girl from the sea at the end of the break- water and had asked for the life-boat.

At 5.40 the life-boat St. Cijbi, Civil Service No. 9 was launched in a smooth sea, with a light breeze blowing and an ebbing tide. She took the body on board, but artificial respiration failed to revive the child. The life- boat landed her body at Holyhead at 6.5.—Rewards to the crew, £2 5s.; rewards to the helpers on shore, £3 6s..
