Cromer, Norfolk. At 1.51 on the afternoon of the 2nd of February, 1958, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that there was a very sick man on board the S.S. Hudson Bank and a doctor was needed. The steamer was expected to be off Cromer at about three o'clock. At 2.30 the life-boat Cunard, on temporary duty at the no. 1 station, was launched with a doctor on board. There was a smooth sea, a light south-south-westerly wind was blowing, and the tide was flooding. The life-boat met the Hudson Bank, and the doctor, after examining the patient, decided he should go to hospital. The man was transferred to the life-boat and landed at Cromer at 3.30, where an ambulance was waiting. The man made a gift to the crew. Rewards to the crew, £15 ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £5 8s..
