NEAR MILFORD HAVEN
GALE OFF WELSH COAST
EFFORT TO RESCUE CREW
British Official Wireless.
(Deceived 27th November, 11 a.m.)
EUGBY, 26th November.
Storms at sea last night caused damage to shipping, and wireless listeners heard S.O.S. broadcasts requesting ships m the vicinity to signal to the steamship Molesey, of 3800 tons, which was ashore and breaking up near Milford Haven. Efforts from land to rescue the crew were unavailing, as the ship was just out of range of rockets. A lifeboat was launched, and later reports state that it was standing by but communication is difficult owing to the land lines being blown down. A small schooner was also wrecked near Milford Haven last night. The crew were saved. ■
