For these and other Life-boat services the Institution has
voted £2,458 as rewards to the crews of its Lifeboats. It has
also granted re wards amounting to £572 for saving 562
shipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means. mak-
ing a total of 1,302 persons saved from a watery grave during
the last two years and a half.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society and other means, since its formation, is 12,690;
for which services 82 Gold Medals, 713 Silver Medals, and.
£16,060 in cash have been paid In rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £64,300 on Life-boats, Life-boat
Transporting-cart cages, and Boat-houses.

The public cannot but sympathise 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
the present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
the Society has made within the past few years, it has now
One Hundred and Twenty-three Life-boats under its man-
agement, 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.
