Reprimand for Nine Men.
The nine men who, on August 2. refused to embark on the Vestal at Cowes in order to effect the month- ly relief of the Calshot Spit, War- ner, Owers, and Royal Sovereign Light-vessels are' to be reprimand.. ed. and to lose a year's seniority. This decision was made in a report Issued by the Industrial Court, who had to consider "whether the men's refusal was justified and, if not, what disciplinary action would be fair and adequate in the circum- stances."
