MARCH 2ND. - SCARBOROUGH, YORKSHIRE.

When the small fishing boats Alex and Gratitude were seen making for home, a fresh east-north-east wind was blowing and heavy seas were breaking across the harbour entrance, so the motor life-boat Herbert Joy II was launched at 12.25 in the afternoon. She met the boats about two miles north-east of Castle Hill, handed belts to the crew of the Gratitude, as she was an open boat, and escorted both boats into harbour. She reached her station again at 2.30. - Rewards, £22 2s..
