St. Mary's, Scilly Islands. — About eleven o'clock on the night of the 8th of August, 1956, it was reported that the fishing boat Corah, with five people on board, was overdue. The life-boat Guy and Clare Hunter was launched at 11.50. There was a smooth sea, light airs and an ebbing tide. The life-boat came up with the Corah about one mile south-west from Samson Island and found that she had fouled her propeller. She took the five people aboard and towed the boat to St. Mary's, arriving at 12.35 early on the 9th. This was the first service of the St. Mary's new life-boat.— Rewards to the crew, £7; rewards to the helpers on shore, £2 8s..
