To Mr. G. C. Brooke for Gallantry in saving life on the 5th August - 1879, Board of Trade Large Silver Medal for Life at Sea in original case of issue.On 30 October 1879, the Government of India forwarded to the India Office an extract from a letter written by Captain Methven of the P&O ship Kaisar-i-Hind. Captain Methven wished to notify his employers and the authorities of the gallant act of bravery on the part of one of his officers in rescuing one of his shipmates from drowning. Correspondence in a file in the India Office Records described the rescue. This occurred at 10 am on 5 August, when an Indian seaman fell from the foreyard (the lowest yard on a ship's foremast) on to the awning and then overboard, striking an awning stanchion on the way and sustaining several injuries in the process. The alarm was raised, but the seaman was quickly swept astern of the ship. A life-buoy was thrown to the stricken man but he was too weak to hold on to it. As described by the Captain, the second officer G C Brookes made a full spring and took the water close to the spot, felt the lascar with his feet at this time below the water let himself sink and clenched him; but there were several instants before Mr Brookes came to the surface. A rope was thrown, which Brookes was able to grab while holding tightly to the Indian seaman, and both men were pulled aboard the ship. Of the rescue Captain Methven wrote: The act was as prompt as it was gallant. The tide ran dangerously strong. The man was stunned and disabled, and an instant later and he was inevitable gone…. Altogether it was well done. https://blogs.bl.uk/untoldlives/2022/04/rescue-at-sea-of-a-man-overboard-.html
