The schooner Eleanor, of New Quay, Cardiganshire, .was seen on the Constable Bank, off Rhyl, on the evening of the 2nd June, with a signal of distress flying. The tubular Life-boat Morgan was launched as soon as practicable to her assistance, and many of her crew having been put on board the vessel, which was in a sinking state, and having worked hard at the pumps, they were successful in bringing the schooner and her crew safely into the harbour.

The weather was squally, and the sea rough at the time..
