"Lord Charles Beresford, R.N., on September 18th, 1883, at Liverpool,

saved Mr. Richardson, who accidentally fell into the Mersey. Lord

Charles jumped overboard and supported him in the water until

assistance came. It may be mentioned that a strong tide was running at

the time. Lord Charles is also the holder of the Bronze Clasp, for

saving, in conjunction with John Harry, ship's corporal of H.M.S.

_Galatea_, a marine named W. James, at Port Stanley, Falkland Islands,

October 6th, 1868. Lord Charles jumped overboard with heavy shooting

clothes and pockets filled with gun and cartridges. Harry assisted Lord

Charles to support the man until a boat arrived."
