Sarah

SCARBOROUGH.—On the 8th May the fishing coble Sarah, of this port, which had gone out at about 3 A.M., was caught in a gale from the E.S.E, which subsequently sprang up, and at about 8.30 she was seen making for the harbour. The sea had risen very much, with a great deal of broken water towards the shore, and as the coble was in great peril, the Life-boat Lady Leigh was launched. The crew of the coble, consisting of 3 men, were taken into the Life-boat, and their boat was then towed safely into harbour..
