Lorna Doone
Mumbles, Glamorganshire.—At 10.55 on the morning of the 12th of August, 1956, the motor mechanic saw a small craft in difficulties about one mile east of Mumbles Head. The life-boat Wil- liam Gammon—Manchester and District XXX was launched at 11.15. There was a choppy sea, with a moderate north-westerly breeze blowing and a flood tide. The life-boat came up with the dinghy Lorna Doone, which had a crew of one, and took the boat in tow. She arrived back at her station at noon.—Rewards to the crew, £6; rewards to the helpers on shore, £4 16s..
