DEC. 6TH. - SHOREHAM HARBOUR, SUSSEX - At 11.50 A.M. it was reported that a fishing boat was flying distress signals about three miles SW. of Shoreham. A moderate N. gale was blowing, with a rough sea. At 12.41 P.M. the motor life-boat Rosa Woodd and Phyllis Lunn was launched with Captain C. T. Keigwin, the honorary secretary, on board. She found the fishing boat Skylark, of Shoreham, returning to harbour.

Her engine had broken down during the night, but it had been repaired. As there was the possibility of further trouble with the engine, the life-boat escorted the Skylark to harbour, and returned to her station at 3.20 P.M. - Rewards, £7 15s. 6d.
