Galway Bay. At 10.45 on the night of the 19th of November, 1958, the cox- swain received a request from the local doctor for the life-boat to take an expectant mother to the mainland. At eleven o'clock the life-boat Mabel Marion Thompson put out with the woman on board in a calm sea. A light south-easterly wind was blowing.

and there were fog patches. As it was low water at Rossaveal pier, the life- boat went on to Galway and landed the woman. The life-boat arrived back at her station at eight o'clock in the morning.
