Accidents and Incidents

From the Haverfordwest & Milford Haven Telegraph, Wednesday 7th September 1904:

    On Monday, the steam trawler "Laureate", from Aberdeen, landed her first trip at the port.  This adds another to the list of Scotch trawlers which have been working out of the port for the last twelve months.  She is under the management of Mr. John Pettit, fish salesman and trawler owner.
