St. Peter Port, Guernsey.—At 2.42 on the afternoon of the 25th of August, 1957, a canoe was seen to capsize in heavy seas two miles off the harbour.

The life-boat Euphrosyne Kendal put out at 3.2 in a very rough sea. There was a moderate west-north-westerly gale blowing, and the tide was flooding.

When the life-boat reached the position indicated she found a man clinging to the canoe. He was taken aboard arid placed in the survival suit. The lifeboat arrived back at her station at 3.34 and the man was taken to hospital.

The canoeist made a donation to the Institution's funds.—Rewards to the crew, £7..
