 Accidents and Incidents

From an unknown local newspaper of c. 24th August 1939:

 

    The crews of the Spanish pair of trawlers "Jaime Segui" and "Francisco Lorca" have, we understand, been paid off, the vessels being about to return to Spain.  They have been under the management of Messrs. Hellings and Sons for some considerable time.
