Fishing Boats (2)
NOVEMBER 14TH. - WHITBY, YORKSHIRE.
Early in the morning the local fishing fleet had put to sea in moderate weather, but by noon an east-north-east gale was blowing, with a heavy sea. Four motor fishing vessels were seen to be making for the harbour, and at 1.20 the No. 1 motor life-boat Mary Ann Hepworth was launched and escorted them one by one into harbour.
Three other fishing vessels were expected, but it was learned that they had reached Hartlepool, and the life-boat arrived back at her station at three o’clock. - Rewards, £7 11s..
