LIFE-SAVING COMPANY RESCUES TWO FROM CLIFFS Padstow, Cornwall. At six o'clock on the evening of the 17th August, 1962, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a man and a woman were cut off by the tide at the foot of high cliffs at Polzeath and that the Port Isaac coastguard life-saving company had gone to their help. The coastguard had also asked for a helicopter. The life-boat Joseph Hiram Chadwick put to sea at 6.30. She made for the position given in a light north-westerly breeze, a slight sea and a flooding tide. The life-saving company succeeded in hauling the two people up the cliff, and the life-boat passed the news to the helicopter. The life-boat stood by until the rescued people were safe and then returned to her station, arriving at 7.45..
