DOCTOR’S DASH OUT TO SEA.
In response to an urgent wireless message Dr. Ord, of Dover, set out on May 16 in a motor-boat for the Dutch steamer Grootendijk, off Folkestone. Heavy seas were running, but this dirt not deter either the doctor or the crow of the motor-boat. He reached the ship, only to find the patient dead. It appears that Captain K. Pauw, of the Grootendijk, had been taken ill with some sort of seizure during the night. A wireless message for medical aid was sent out, which was intercepted by another Dutch vessel in Dover Harbour, and as a result Dr. Orel went out.
