MARCH 8TH. - TOBERMORY, ARGYLLSHIRE.

At 2.30 in the afternoon the local doctor asked for the services of the life-boat to take to Oban a young girl who was ill with appendicitis and in a critical condition. The motor life-boat Sir Arthur Rose took her and a nurse. She reached Oban at 6.15 and got back to her station at 10.20 that night. She had saved the life of the girl, who was operated on at once. Her father made a donation of £20 to the Institution in gratitude. - Rewards, £8 9s. 6d..
