St. Peter Port, Guernsey. At 11.30 on the night of the 6th of August, 1958, a fisherman on returning ashore re- ported to the signal station that he had seen a flare east of Herm. He had carried out a search but had found nothing. At one o'clock early on the morning of the 7th of August the fishing boat Lynian was reported miss- ing, and at 1.47 the life-boat Euphrosyne Kendal put out in a slight sea. A fresh south-westerly wind was blowing and the tide was ebbing. The life-boat searched for some time, and when her engines were stopped cries for help were heard, coming from reefs. The Lynian was found anchored near the Creux rocks. After careful manoeuvr- ing the coxswain brought the life-boat alongside the fishing boat, took off her crew of two, and with their boat in tow arrived back at her moorings at 2.50.

Rewards to the crew, £7 ; reward to the helper on shore, 13s..
