DRAMATIC RESCUE
Watched by his parents from a clifftop, a Malvern College- student, Robert Walmsley Peel, aged eighteen, was dramatically rescued from the sea at Saundersfoot, Pembrokeshire, recently. Peel was out in a canoe when he was overturned. Four men—Ambrose Lilbourne, J. Vickerman, William Richards, and Wylam Richards —dragged a boat a quarter of a mile over mud and sands and went to his rescue. They reached the overturned canoe and dragged Peel aboard just as the Tenby lifeboat appeared. The lifeboat took the rowing boat and the canoe in tow.
Workmen removing varnish in the ancient Cheshire church of Mottram-in-Longdendale, found beneath it some rara and lovely old carvings.
