Trilby, of Benllech
AUGUST 5TH. - MOELFRE, ANGLESEY.
At ten o’clock at night the resident of a bungalow on the cliffs near Benllech reported to the honorary secretary of the life-boat station that signals were being made by torch from a launch which appeared to have broken down. A south-west wind was blowing and the sea was smooth, but as the wind was offshore and was increasing it was decided to investigate, and the motor life-boat G.W.
was launched at 10.15. She found the motor launch Trilby, of Benllech, three miles out to the south of Benllech. She had five on board. Her engine had broken down. The life-boat towed her in and arrived back at her station at 12.20 next morning. - Rewards, £11 16s..
