Annie Jane, of Runcorn
The Courtown life-boat was also launched on the 14th August, and rendered valuable assistance to "the schooner Annie Jane, of Kuncorn, which was stranded in the road- stead off Courtown, during a heavy gale from the S.S.E., and had showed signals of distress. Owing to the tremendous sea running, the life-boat failed at first to reach the vessel, and had to be beached. She was, however, quickly launched a second time, and by means of a hawser got alongside, and at the request of the master 6 of the l:fe-boat men boarded the schooner and suc- ceeded in pumping her dry.. After remain- ing alongside some time, the life-boat returned to the shore with the captain's son.
The Cahore life-boat, the Sir George Bowles, also put off to the assistance of the same vessel..
