APRIL 27TH. - WALMER, KENT. Shortly before 6 A.M. a Kingsdown boatman reported that a steamer was ashore in Old Stairs Bay, Kingsdown. There were patches of fog, with a light south-westerly wind blowing and a smooth sea. The motor life-boat Charles Dibden (Civil Service No. 2) was launched at 6.6 A.M. and found the Dutch steamer Helder, of Amsterdam. She had a crew of thirty eight on board and was laden with sugar and wheat from the West Indies. Two Deal motor boats helped the life-boat to run out a kedge anchor, and when the tide rose the steamer was hauled off at 2.30 P.M. The life-boat escorted her to an anchorage in the Downs, and returned  to her station at 3.45 P.M. - Property salvage case.
