Whitby, Yorkshire. At 12.29 on the afternoon of the 5th of December, 1958, the coastguard told the honorary secre- tary and coxswain that the propeller of the motor fishing vessel Whitby Rose had been fouled seven miles north- north-east of Whitby. At 12.54 the life-boat Mary Ann Hepworth was launched in a moderate sea, with a fresh north-easterly wind blowing and an ebb tide. The life-boat found the Whitby Rose and took her in tow to harbour. She later stood by while another fishing boat crossed the harbour bar and then returned to her station, arriving at 4.5. Rewards to the crew, £12 5s. ; rewards to the helpers on shore. £1 16s..
