The crew in two lifeboats from the King Cadwallon (1900)
The crew from the steam cargo ship 'King Cadwallon' (1900) in two lifeboats secured 'line ahead' to each other under tow from a vessel out of the image.
The 'King Cadwallon' was wrecked on the Hard Lewis Rocks off St. Martin's Island, Isles of Scilly, in fog. She was abandoned by her crew as she filled with water and sank in deep water.
