On the morn- ing of the 18th November the sloop Active, of Carmarthen, was observed with signals of distress flying, in Caldy Roads, off Tenby.

There was a heavy gale of wind blowing from W.N.W., and the sea was breaking heavily over the vessel. The Tenby life- boat was quickly launched, and rescued the crew of 3 men from the sloop. Subse- quently the gale moderated, and a fishing- smack succeeded in bringing the .vessel safely into port.
