Fisher Lass, of Douglas

APRIL 16TH. - DOUGLAS, ISLE OF MAN.

While out fishing the fishing smack Fisher Lass, of Douglas, broke her engine shaft, about nine miles south-east-by-east of Douglas Head. The sea was smooth, with a light wind blowing. The motor life-boat Manchester and Salford was launched at 10.30 at night. She reached the Fisher Lass an hour later and towed her in at one o’clock the next morning. - Rewards, £11..
