AUGUST 30TH. - PETERHEAD, ABERDEENSHIRE At 11.35 at night the coastguard reported flares about one mile off North Head. A light south-south-east wind was blowing. There was a heavy swell. The motor life-boat Julia Park Barry of Glasgow was launched at 11.50 and found the motor boat Union, of Fraserburgh, with her engine broken down. She had anchored, but the anchor was dragging. She had on board the owner, his wife and two sons. The life-boat passed a rope to the Union, which was made fast with some difficulty, and towed her to Peterhead, arriving at one o’clock next morning.
