Ramlah, Freda and Rosamund

OCTOBER 22ND. - WHITBY, YORKSHIRE.

Fishing cobles had put to sea at 8 A.M., and all except three had returned by noon. By 1 P.M. a strong N.N.E. wind was blowing, with a heavy sea, making it dangerous for cobles to come into harbour, and at 1.55 P.M. the No. 1 motor life-boat Mary Ann Hepworth put out. The cobles were then about two miles to the north.

They were the Ramlah, Freda, and Rosamund.

They had a pretty bad time getting into the harbour through the heavy seas but, escorted by the life-boat, they made it safely.
