ViVINO LIFE FKO Vl SHIPWKBOK IN lses. The year which is now closing will long be remem. bered as o!:e of tha stormieat on record.

During jko same period the Lifeboat Institution granted rewards °r saving 259 lives by fishing and other boats, making a erand total of 817 lives saved mainly through its in- It""naentalityo In the same period, the crews of the Vek°ats of the Society, at a very large expense, have ]1j^er. asaBEibled or put off in repiy to signals of distress *42 times to ships not eventually requiring their ser- *'ces. It often happened that on these occasions the •f^oat crews had incurred much rjpk and exposure j. rcughc-ut fctoimy days and nights. The number of saved either by the lifeboats of the Institution, or > E special exertions for which it has granted rewards its formation, is 17,795, for which service 90 gold 'dais, 792 silver medals, and £ 28906 in cash, have been jL*ec\,?9 'awards.. When we remember that nearly ery Lfe 8a*ed by lifeboats has been rescued under Perilous circumstances, it will at once be seen what •pat- benefit has been conferred by the Lifeboat Institu- °n, not only on the poor men themselves and on their 0^ntry.aIsa on their wives and children, who would herwise be widows and orphans. Since the beginning the present year the Institution has spent £ 18,813 on j8 194 lifeboat stations on the ooasts of England, Scot- and-Ireland and since its first establishment in it has expended £ 212,820 on its lifeboat stations. e Would strongly urge on all who recognise the sacred- ?3 cf human life, the duty, and even the privilege to bith ^0rw6!d the lifeboat work, a work which has been manifestly blessed by Providence, and Vk *laa brought relief to many thousands of men, °f th lnstea(* being this very day valuable members- in 6 Co«imunity, would have been long ago engulphed case,e r?8'ng 'waves of the tempest, leaving, in many ot Wjdows and orphans to suffer'not only the misery °tllpeTeJiVeiI,,rnt' bul t.'le Pan38 °f destitution.
