Supply, of Stornoway

The same boat also rendered similar service, on the 26th October, to the crew of the brig Supply, of Stornoway, which was seen in distress, with signals for help flying, in Thurso Bay, during a heavy northerly gale. When the vessel was reached the seas were breaking completely over her, but fortunately the life-boat was successful in saving the crew of 7 men, and in landing them in safety.
