At daylight, on the 20th February, a pilot-boat was observed at anchor under Craig Leith Island, with the sea breaking very heavily all round her, and the wind blowing a gale from N.N.W. with severe frost. The North Berwick life-boat was launched through a very heavy surf, and brought on shore from the boat 3 pilots, who had been exposed in their small open boat for 28 hours, and were almost perishing with cold and hunger. They had been un- able to roach the shore on account of the heavy surf..
