On the 10th April the Life-boat Hannah Somerset was launched to aid 3 fishing cobles, which having been caught outside in a sudden on-shore storm were unable to land. The Life-boat, having pulled out against a heavy sea, joined company, and the four boats bore up together for the shore, the cobles having this surety, that in the event of a capsize aid was close at hand. The fishing boats reached the shore in safety, after some very narrow escapes, and so avoided having to keep the sea in the momentarily increasing gale..
