FEBRUARY 6TH. - ALDEBURGH, SUFFOLK.

A very heavy explosion had been heard five to six miles E.S.E. of Aldeburgh.

The life-boat found a large patch of oil or coal dust and followed it for two miles, but found no vessel. Later a message was received that a seaplane had come down between Southwold and Dunwich, but again a thorough search revealed nothing. - Rewards, £65 17s.
