MARCH 5TH. - GALWAY BAY. A man was seriously injured in a bad accident on the island of Kilronan, and it was necessary to take him to hospital on the mainland.

All the local boats were out fishing. So at 1.30 P.M., the motor life-boat K.E.C.F. was launched. A light breeze was blowing and the sea was smooth. The life-boat brought the injured man to the mainland and returned to her station at 5.20 P.M. - Expenses paid by Galway Board of Health..
