APRIL 26TH. - GREAT YARMOUTH AND GORLESTON, NORFOLK. At 12.30 P.M.

an officer of the Great Yarmouth naval base asked the life-boat coxswain if the life-boat could take some men off a vessel. She was the S.S. Ethel Radcliffe, of London, and had foundered in shallow water in Yarmouth Roads after being attacked. There were 20 servicemen on board, on guard. The life-boat was also asked to take out food to the S.S Corrie, of Belfast, anchored in the roads. The sea on the bar and in the roads was very rough and tugs could not get alongside either of the vessels. The motor lifeboat Louise Stephens was launched at 12.45 P.M., took food to the S.S. Corrie, and then brought ashore the men from the Ethel Radcliffe, returning to her station at 3 P.M.
