They were competing in the Deal and Walmer Angling Association festival when the storm burst.
Hurriedly, the anglers started for the shore, but the situa tion became so menacing to the smaller bonts that the larger craft took them in tow.
Large crowds on the beach anxiously watched their pass. age through the heavy seas and driving rain.

As each boat neared the shore men on the bench rushed in- to the water to grasp the ropes that were thrown to them and they had ready helpers to haul boats and anglers clear of the auri.
The women of 80 were quite undaunted.
One recalled a worm experience in the Bay of Biscay 60 years ago, and the other said: "It was all right until it rained."
SAVED BY LIFEBOAT
Another rescue of anglers was effected by Gorleston lifeboat.

Sea Monster Stoned By Fisherman
Deal.
monster basking shark was seen by three Deal boatmen (Harry Bailey, George Budd and George Baker) when on the beach recently.
It was swimming rapidly parallel with the shore and only a few yards out. Bailey and Baker ran to the pier for a better view and Budd to the water's edge.
"From the pier," Bailey said, "we saw the huge fish moving quickly and quietly towards us, until Budd hit it twice with stones.
"
"Throwing its huge tail in the air, it lashed the water and dived between the pier piles. The next we saw of it was a hundred yards or so scaward, where it lay floating with a big. fin about three feet out of the water.

"As we drifted alongside," he said,

was a monster. There was about
three tons of it.
"It was a lot bigger than the boat we were in, which is 17ft. long. It was quite 20ft. long if it wasn't more. "I made a mightly swipe at it with an oar, but I might just as well hava hit it with a feather, for all that the dld was to flings grenk monster tall into the air and make off. · All that we got was a good soaking from the flying spray.
