MARCH 8TH. - PENLEE, CORNWALL.

At 2.28 P.M. the coastguard called for the life-boat to go out to a steamer to bring off some wounded men. A N.E. gale was blowing, with a rough sea. The motor life-boat W. and S. was launched at 2.45 P.M., and met the S.S. Margo, of Cardiff. When she had anchored in Mounts Bay, the life-boat went alongside, brought off three injured men and one body, and took them to Penzance Harbour, where an ambulance was waiting.

A severely wounded man had been left aboard the Margo, and the life-boat took out a doctor to him. She then brought ashore to Newlyn Harbour the wounded man andthe captain of the Margo. A call for a doctor had come from another steamer, the Falkvik, of Sweden. The life-boat took a doctor out to her and brought ashore a man with an injured hand, landing him at 10 P.M. She then took the captain of the Margo back to his ship. As the weather was too bad to rehouse her, the life-boat put into Newlyn at 11 P.M., and returned to her station two days later. - Rewards, £30 9s. 6d..
