MARCH 10TH. - ST. IVES, CORNWALL.

During the morning three men from the Dutch motor vessel Wilja, which was wind-bound in St. Ives Bay, left her in the ship’s boat to come into St. Ives, but were carried out to sea by the ebb tide and off-shore wind. The wind was moderate from the south-southwest, and the sea was rough. Finding themselves in difficulties, and in danger of drifting on to the Stones Rocks off Godrevy, the men waved for help, and at 11.35 the motor lifeboat Caroline Oates Aver and William Maine was launched. She overtook the ship’s boat when she was one-and-a-half miles east-northeast of St. Ives Head and towed her back to the Wilja. She arrived back at 12.20 that afternoon. - Rewards, £10 4s..
