1903 Sea Gallantry Medal (large bronze) to John Hay Jr Wreck of the "Xenia" on the 1st February 1903 and Danish Medal For Saving Life From Drowning (47mm silver) with oval suspension to John Hay, both have quantity of contact marks to edges and obverses, file marks to John on Danish Medal, generally fine, Danish medal with box of issue. Only 23 large bronze Sea Gallantry Medals were issued in EDVII's reign and of these 10 were awarded For Service in saving life from the Xenia on 1st February 1903 to fishermen W. Cay, A. Cay, C. Cay, A. Hay, J. Hay Jr, G. Hay, J.R. Hay, T. Gray, A. Morgan and A.J. Freeland. <\n>The Peterhead Sentinel dated 7th Feb 1903 reported "On Sunday morning the steamer Xenia went ashore on the Scuars of Cruden during a strong north-westerly gale, accompanied by a blinding snowstorm; and of a crew of 27 all told, 25 were saved and two drowned. The Xenia was on the way from Newcastle to Boston, USA with a cargo of coals when the mishap occurred. The skipper John Kruse told the paper, "When we left Newcastle the weather was fine, but about five o'clock on Sunday morning the wind suddenly veered from a southerly direction to the north-west. The sea became rough and heavy showers of sleet began to fall. We were then off Girdleness, and it was supposed that we were at least twenty miles from land. However the course was altered and the vessel was put farther out to sea. The storm increased in violence, and the showers of snow became so thick that we experienced great difficulty in locating our whereabouts. About seven o'clock our vessel bumped against the rocks. The water broke into the holds fore and aft, and in less than ten minutes she went down with all our belongings on board. We at once realised that our position was hopeless, and no time was lost in getting the steamer's boats in readiness for being lowered. We had three lifeboats in all. The first boat we launched swamped, and John Johansson, a fireman, who had jumped into it, perished before our eyes. Ernest Raff, the third engineer, was in the act of lowering himself into another lifeboat by a rope, when he lost his hold, and shared a similar fate to that of his mate. By this time some stranger fishermen came to our assistance, and piloted our two remaining lifeboats ashore. Along with four of the crew I remained on the bridge of the steamer till the last, and we had to be taken off one by one by means of a line thrown from one of our lifeboats by the fishermen. It was a perilous task, and after my four mates had been got off, the line had to be cut and I was left alone on the steamer. It was a trying experience, but another line was forthcoming, and I was also landed in the lifeboat. During my thirty-five years' experience at sea this is my first serious mishap, but I could not have fallen into the hands of a more hospitable people and I will never forget their kindness although I live to be a hundred years old." <\n>The paper continues, <\n>It appears that the people in the little fishing village of Whinnyfold were appraised of the disaster a few minutes after the steamer went ashore. The fishing boat Vine immediately put out, manned by Jospeh Cay, Thomas Gray, William Morgan, Alexander Cay, James Freeland, James F Phillips, John Hay, William Hay and James Hay. These fishermen have done yeoman service in saving lives on previous occasions, but they never effected a rescue with such risk to their lives as on Sunday morning. The waves threatened every moment to engulf their tiny boat and they had to exercise the most careful seamanship to keep her from being swamped. After much battling with the waves, they got alongside the steamer's lifeboats. Thomas Gray boarded one boat and William Cay another, and succeeded in landing twenty of the crew at Broadhaven Creek. The skipper and four of the crew still remained on the vessel, but the brave fishermen of Whinnyfold determined that their lives must be saved at whatever risk, and out they went again, this time in one of the steamer's lifeboats. The crew were John Hay, George Hay, Charles Cay, Thomas Gray, Alexander Hay, Alexander Cay, William Cay, Alexander John Freeland, Alexander Morgan, and John Robert Hay. After much combating with the waves the fishermen got the boat hauled up into a sheltered creek, and from here they threw a line to the shipwrecked mariners. One by one the survivors were dragged through the surf, and got on board the boat. Great difficulty however, was experienced in getting Captain Kruse on board, as the line had to be cut and another one prepared. The fishermen again piloted the boat safely ashore, and the five survivors were taken to Whinnyfold, where, along with the other members of the crew, they were most kindly treated by the fishermen. <\n>The Dundee Evening Telegraph dated 13th July 1903 reported, "On Saturday evening, in the presence of a large gathering in Peterhead Music Hall, Sheriff Crawford presented handsome silver medals which the King of Denmark sent to Lord Landsdowne to be given to the 15 Whinnyford fishermen who in February last heroically went to the rescue of the crew of the Danish steamer Xenia. Provost Leask stated that during the past twenty years the fishermen had saved 120 lives…" With copied research. (See photo) (R) £1400

1912 Royal Humane Society small silver (successful) Medal to Lieut Arthur Marsden R.N. 25th March 1912, extremely fine, fitted with buckle, in Elkington box of issue. The medal has a 1929 hallmark so is either a late issue or a replacement. RHS Case No 38961: <\n>'At 10 p.m. on the 25th March 1912, James Cameron, A.B. on H.M.S. Erne, was employed on a target which was being got ready for towing by H.M.S. Exe at sea off Parkeston. Before he got clear of the target the Exe went ahead, and the bowline he was wearing got round the mast of the target which was now being dragged away from the Erne's side. Cameron succeeded in clearing himself, and jumping from the target attempted to swim back to the Erne, but became exhausted and called for help before reaching the buoy which had been thrown. Seeing that he was on the point of sinking, Lieut. Marsden plunged in from the bridge, fully clothed, and supported him for some five minutes, when they were picked up by a boat. Great risk incurred, the night being dark and bitterly cold, with a choppy sea and strong rippling tide.' <\n>With large quantity of copied research, Arthur Marsden was born 14/11/83 in India, entered Navy 15/5/98, commended for service at the Battle of Jutland where he was wounded in the thigh when the destroyer he was in command of, HMS Ardent was sunk during the night action, retired 2/10/20, recalled WW2 as Captain, retired again May 1946. It is highly likely that the original medal was lost when HMS Ardent was sunk and the he did not re-apply for a replacement until 1929 or just after. (See photo) (R) £240
