On the 29th October the schooner Gipsy, of Drogheda, coal laden, in attempting to take the bar at the mouth of the Boyne, was driven ashore on the North Wall, the wind blowing a heavy gale from the south at the time. The Drogheda life-boat was at once launched, and in two hours arrived at the wreck, when she succeeded in rescuing the crew and landed them in safety.
