At dusk on the evening of the 2nd October the schooner Dispatch, of this port, was making for the harbour, when the wind suddenly fell, and she drove over the rocks into the broken water. The master immediately showed a signal of distress, when the No. 1 Life-boat, Robert Wkitworth, was quickly launched, and proceeded to the schooner; aiid after the Life-boat men had suc- ceeded in getting her anchor and towing her into a safe position, the master and crew of 2 men left her, she being in a leaky state at the time, and they were safely landed in the Life-boat through a heavy sea. The next morning the ves- sel was still riding at her anchor, and as there seemed some hope of saving her the wind being fair, although the sea was very heavy, the Life-boat placed the mas- ter and crew again on board, and, with assistance, the schooner was taken on to Hartlepool..
