The Norwegian Galliot Ship Provence

On the 28th September last the Norwegian Galliot Ship Provence ran on shore on the south side of Berwick-har- bour; the wind blowing strong from the E.N.E., and a heavy sea running at the time.

The Berwick life-boat, belonging to the Na- tional Life-boat Institution, was quickly launched and succeeded in rescuing her crew of six persons, and in bringing them safely to the land. The life-boat is reported to have behaved very well on the occasion.
