Amble, Northumberland.—At 12.55 on the afternoon of the 23rd of November, 1955, the life-boat coxswain reported that the local fishing coble Ocean Pride, with a crew of three, was still at sea in worsening weather. At 1.15 the life-boat City of Bradford II was launched. There was a heavy sea, a north-easterly gale was blowing, and the tide was ebbing. The life-boat made a search and came up with the Ocean Pride two miles to the north- east. The life-boat crew told the fishermen that conditions at the har- bour bar were dangerous, so they took their boat towards Newbiggin, accom- panied by the life-boat. The New- biggin life-boat met both boats off Cresswell, and the life-boats escorted the coble to Newbiggin. The Amble life-boat then made for Blyth, arriving at 4.30. She remained there until the 25th.—Rewards to the crew, £19 13s. 6d. Other Expenses, £4 10,9..
