On the llth October this life-boat again went out and rescued a fisherman from his boat, called the Hero, of Teignmouth, which had struck and afterwards sunk on the bar in a heavy sea. A Coast-guard boat had previously attempted to save the man, but could not approach the spot, owing to the heavy surf on the bar. The life-boat's crew received 13Z. from the Institution for saving the poor fellow, and the Coast-guard men also received from it a reward.
