DECEMBER 29TH. - GREAT YARMOUTH AND GORLESTON, NORFOLK. At about noon some small fishing boats were seen south of the harbour. A strong northwesterly wind was blowing, with a very rough sea and snow squalls. The coastguard kept them in view, saw that one of them was in difficulties, and rang up the life-boat station.

At 1.12 P.M. the motor life-boat Louise Stephens was launched and found that the boat was the rowing boat Molly, of Gorleston, with one man aboard. She was drifting with her anchor down. The life-boat towed her in, reaching harbour at 1.40 P.M. - Rewards, £5 12s..
