10855 LIFE-BOAT MODELS submitted for the PREMIUM offered by ADMIRAL ALGERNON DUKE 

 OF NORTHUMBERLAND, F.R.S. : REPORT of the COMMITTEE appointed to Examine them, with List 

 of the existing Life-Boat, Rocket, and Mortar Stations, with Abstract of the Wrecks in 1850, with 

 13 folding tinted plates by Joseph Prowse, of Woolwich Dockyard, of the models, and coloured 

 wreck-charts of the Northumbrian coast and of the British Islands, folio, cL (scarce), 12s Qd 1851 



The prize was awarded to JAMES BEECHING, of Great Yarmouth, whose model was that of the first self-righting lifeboat 

 ever built. The work was issued for presentation only. 



The fourth Duke of Northumberland was a rather unusual Duke, and a noblehearted. man. He entered the Navy as a 

 volunteer when he was twelve, and served for ten years, becoming acting-Captain of Lord Exmouth's flagship. At the 

 peace ho travelled in the East and was one of the early explorers of Egyptian antiquities, which led him to bear the whole 

 cost, till he died, of E. W. Lane's enormous Arabic Lexicon. He went out with Sir John Herschel to the Cape in 1836 for 

 observing the Southern Constellations, and maintained his scientific interests to the end. But he loved his eld calling of 

 the sea best of all, and this led him to his lifelong work for the National Life-Boat Institution, of which the above 

 competition was a part. He became First Lord of the Admiralty in 1852, and though a sailor of the old war was a pioneer 

 of steam power in the Navy. The only regrettable action of his life was the redressing, at great expense, of the interior 

 of the great feudal castle of Alnwick in the finicking mode of the age of Louis Quatorze.
