At daylight on the 12th September the brig Phillis and Mary, of Blyth, which had been dismasted during a fearful hurricane the previous night, was observed, with signals of distress flying, off this coast. The life- boats stationed at Cadgwith and the Lizard were both quickly launched to the rescue of the vessel's crew. The Cadgwith life-boat, having both wind and tide in her favour, got alongside the vessel first, and having placed one man on board, proceeded to Falmouth under canvas, and returned with a pilot. The brig was then worked into Falmouth and safely anchored. The life- boat afterwards put to sea again in the teeth of the gale, but finding it impossible to reach her station at Cadgwith, put into Porthoustock, where she remained until the following day. The Lizard life-boat, when she went off, had an ebbing tide to contend with, and a very heavy sea, which was increased by the tide acting against the wind. The boat, however, was reported to have behaved splendidly, and was fast overhauling the vessel when the Cadgwith life-boat was seen to run alongside.
