During a heavy gale from E.N.E. on the 20th March, the schooner Frances Ann, of Goole, anchored off this place. Soon afterwards the master, find- ing the vessel had sprung a leak and that her pumps were choked, slipped the cable and made for the shore, hoisting at the same time a signal of distress. The Duncan life-boat was immediately launched, reached the schooner before she took the shore, and saved from her the crew, consisting of the master, 1 man, and a boy. The behaviour of the life-boat and crew in this service was admirable.
