On the 20th February last, the Wexford small life-boat put off in reply to signals of distress from the smack Lily, of Wexford, which had struck on the Dogger Bank. It was blowing strong from N.N.E. at the time, with a heavy sea on. On arriving alongside, the vessel was found to have sprung a leak, and with some difficulty the crew, consisting of 6 men, were taken on board the life-boat. This was hardly done before the smack heeled over and disappeared beneath the waves.
