Meg

APRIL 25TH. - LLANDUDNO, CAERNARVONSHIRE.

The rowing boat Meg, with no one on board, anchored in Llandudno Bay, was in danger of sinking during a strong southerly gale, with a rough sea. Three men put out in the small fishing boat Dorothy to bring her in, but when they reached her she had already sunk. They were now in difficulties themselves, and at 2.30 P.M. the motor life-boat Thomas and Annie Wade Richards was launched. She rescued them and took their boat in tow, arriving back at her station at 3.15 P.M. - Rewards, £8 19s..
