The S.S. Kentwood, of London

JULY 25TH. - GREAT YARMOUTH AND GORLESTON, NORFOLK. About 10.37 in the morning the coastguard telephoned that the S.S. Kentwood, of London, which was off Great Yarmouth, had signalled for a doctor to attend an injured man. At 11.22 the motor life-boat Mary Scott, on temporary duty at the station, was launched in a slight sea, with a light west-north-west wind blowing. She took out a doctor, ambulance men and a stretcher. The doctor went on board and the injured man was transferred to the life-boat, which landed him at 12.11.
