OCTOBER 19TH. - COVERACK, CORNWALL.

At 10.31 P .M. information was received, through the coastguard, that the coastwatching post at Kennack had seen an aeroplane crash into the sea in Kennack Bay, and in eight minutes the motor life-boat The Three Sisters was away. A strong S.W.

wind was blowing, with a rough sea and rain.

Searching off Lankidden, below Blackhead, the life-boat picked up several pieces of wreckage from an aeroplane. She continued her search, but found nothing more, and returned to her station at 1.30 A.M. The lost aeroplane was identified as a British Beaufighter, and the life-boat was thanked by the Group of the R.A.F. to which the aeroplane belonged. - Rewards, £16 18s. 6d..
