Rosslare, Co. Wexford.—At two o'clock on the afternoon of the 10th of June, 1956, the Carne Coast Life-Saving Service rang up to say that the fishing boat Tern was out of control near Splough Rock and was drifting sea- wards. The life-boat Douglas Hyde was launched at 2.15 in a smooth sea, with a light east-south-easterly breeze blowing and an ebbing tide. When she came up with the Tern about six miles north-east of Carnsore, she found that she had engine trouble. The Tern, which is an ex-R.N.L.I, life-boat and which had a crew of two, was towed to Carne harbour. The life-boat arrived back at her station at 5.50. Partly paid permanent crew.—Rewards to the crew, £4 16s.; reward to the helper on shore, 14s..
