Joan and Mary

JULY 20TH. - FILEY, YORKSHIRE. In the early morning the motor fishing boat Joan and Mary had gone out with a crew of three. As by evening she had not returned and no news had been received of another boat which had gone out to look for her, the motor life-boat The Cuttle was launched at 7.32 P.M. A light westerly wind was blowing, with a slight swell. The life-boat found the Joan and Mary, which had had trouble with her engine, and towed her in, arriving at 10 P.M. - Rewards, £14 15s..
