Arbroath, Angus. At nine o'clock on the evening of the 2nd of March, 1959, the fishing boat Bairns Pride left Arbroath to look for the fishing boat Lassie, which was overdue from the fishing grounds. At 9.50 she sent a radio message asking for other boats to join in the search as the Lassie could not be found. Several other fishing boats left harbour to help, and the life-boat The Duke of Montrose was launched at ten o'clock in a moderate sea. There was a light south-south-easterly breeze and the tide was ebbing. At midnight the Bairns Pride found the Lassie with her engine broken down seven miles south of Bell Rock. She took her in tow, and escorted by the life-boat reached Arbroath at 5.30. Rewards to the crew, £22 ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £1 14s..
