GREAT YARMOUTH.—On the 11th November, during a strong 8.8.W. gale and heavy sea, the Abraham Thomas Life-boat was launched at 11.15 P.M., and succeeded in rescuing the crew, 4 in number, from the schooner Agnes and Helen, of Bangor, which vessel had stranded near the Britannia pier. One of the Life-boat men was washed overboard by the heavy sea, but was happily rescued. The Life-boat returned ashore at about 1 o'clock on the following morning; and at 1.15 she again went out and, with some difficulty, saved 6 of the crew of the brig Beatrix, of Whitby, which had also stranded near the Britannia pier; one man had previously been rescued by the rocket apparatus.

At 3 o'clock, immediately after the Lifeboat landed from the brig, the schooner Allerton Packet, of Whitstable, parted from her anchors and went ashore near the North Battery. The Life-boat was at once launched again and taken alongside thewhen she succeeded in rescuing her crew of 5 men.

These services were performed during extremely stormy weather, the sea being very heavy and the wind at times blowing a hurricane..
