B.S. Callings, Premier, and Hilda

JANUARY 20TH. - SCARBOROUGH, YORKSHIRE. The fishing cobles B. S. Callings, Premier, and Hilda were at sea. A north-easterly wind was blowing, and by the afternoon a heavy ground swell was breaking across the bay. At 2.55 the motor life-boat Herbert Joy II was launched, and met the cobles a mile and a half east of Castle Hill.

She passed life-belts to their crews and escorted them into harbour. She was back at her station by four o’clock. - Rewards, £21 10s.
