MAY 9TH. - TORBAY, DEVON. A dinghy attached to a naval motor launch was seen by the life-boat coxswain to capsize off Fishcombe Point, throwing her crew of two into the water. A light south-westerly breeze was blowing and the sea was smooth.

The motor life-boat George Shee was launched at 11.19 in the morning and found the dinghy with her crew trying to right her. The lifeboat picked up the two men, took the dinghy in tow and arrived back at her station at 11.47. A signal was received from the naval authorities expressing appreciation of the rescue. - Rewards, £1 17s. 6d..
