For these and other Life-boat services the Institution hai.
oted £2,158 as rewards to the crews of its Lifeboats. It has
Os° granted re cards mounting to £572 for saving 562
-hipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means, mak-
ng total of 1,302 persons saved from a watery grave during
'he last two years and a half.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society rid other means, since its formation, is 12,690;
for which services 82 Gold MPdals, 713 Silver Medals, and
.C16,0' 0 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu-

Transporting-cart iages, and Boat-houses.
The public cannot but symnathise with the vigorousefforts
now being made by this Institution to save the lives of Ship-
wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
he present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
'he Society has made within the past few years, it has now
One Hundred and Twenty-three Lite-boats under its man-
t gement, for the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough
efficiency, a large permanent annual income is absolutely
needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.
