Mary Roberts
After watching during the night, the coxswain of the Life-boat observed at 8 o'clock on the following morning a signal of distress, displayed from a schooner at anchor in the Bay. The wind was still blowing a heavy gale from N.N.W., and the sea was heavy. The George Moore Life-boat, which had been kept in the water, was at once manned, and again proceeded out and found the schooner Mary Roberts, of Nefyn, had parted one chain, and was riding heavily to the other. The crew, consisting of 5 men,' were afraid that the vessel would strike on the ebb, and therefore wished to be brought ashore. They were accordingly taken- on board the Life-boat and safely landed..
