Eyemouth, Berwickshire.—At 9.55 on the morning of the 29th of October.

1956. a Burnmouth fisherman tele- phoned the honorary secretary that a small fishing vessel Rose Valley. of Burnmouth, was making for Eye- mouth harbour. There was a very rough sea, a northerly gale was blow- ing, and the tide was flooding. As it would have been extremely dangerous for the Rose Valley to enter the harbour it was decided to launch the life-boat at 10.15. The life-boat reached the fishing vessel one mile east of Eye-mouth, and the coxswain advised the skipper to return to Burnmouth. He did so with the life-boat escorting the Rose Valley, and they reached Burn- mouth at 11.45. Because of the very rough sea on the harbour bar the life- boat remained at Burnmouth until the weather abated.—Rewards to crew, £8 12,9. 6d.; rewards to helpers on shore. £5 5s..
