 The lifeboat, using her searchlights, approached the ship from the stern and with great skill, and a great deal of danger, manoeuvred alongside the ship and rescued two of the crew who were hanging on to a cargo net they had clambered down.This proved to be very dangerous and one of the crew men rescued had fallen from the net.His foot had caught in the net and hanging below the deck of the lifeboat, the crew had managed to haul him to safety.
