Accidents and Incidents

From the Haverfordwest & Milford Haven Telegraph of Wednesday 16th April 1913:

 

   On Thursday there was a welcome visitor in the steam trawler Larchwood of Grimsby, which landed a good catch, including about 12 trunks of soles.  We hear she is likely to run to Milford for a time, under the management of Mr. Brand and Co.
