On the 25th October the Christopher Ludlow Life-boat of this station was enabled to render valuable assistance to the brigantine Richard Thompson, of Belfast, which had •gone on Dungarvan Bar during a fresh breeze at S.S.W. The sea broke heavily over her, and the master could only re- gain his vessel, which he had quitted the previous day, by the Life-boat, which at his request then staid by his stranded vessel till she was got off the Bar, which the Life-boat crew assisted to effect.
