Novelli

Bridlington, Yorkshire.—On the morn- ing of the 3rd of November, 1956, the owners of the steam trawler Novelli, of Hull, asked if the life-boat would take off an injured man. It was low water, and as no other boat was afloat, the life-boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield II was launched at 10.15 with a doctor on board. There was a rough sea, and a moderate northerly gale was blowing. The life-boat came up with the trawler off Bridlington, and the injured man was taken on board. He was landed at the pier, and the life- boat returned to her station, arriving at 11.50.—Rewards to the crew, £8 15s.; rewards to the helpers on shore, £5 12s..
