FEBRUARY 17TH. - STORNOWAY, HEBRIDES.

The small motor fishing boat Scot, with a crew of four, left Stornoway to fish in the morning, and anxiety was felt when darkness came on and she had not returned. A southerly gale was blowing, with a heavy sea.

The motor life-boat William and Harriot was launched at 7.25 and found the Scot sheltering off the village of Bayble. She took off the men and with the boat in tow started for home at 9.30. She arrived at midnight.- Rewards, £7 10s..
