SUTTON, LINCOLNSHIRE.—On the 4thJuly the Life-boat Caroline proceeded to the assistance of the yawl Wave, of Goole, which was showing a signal of distress.

On arriving alongside it was found that her foretopmast and foremast-head rigging and head gear had been carried away in a squall, and as the sea was running too high to allow the crew to get the wreckage on board, she had brought up off Sutton and made signals of distress. The Lifeboat men stowed the wreckage, got the vessel under way, took her into Boston Deeps and anchored her in safety off the Scull Kig Buoy, remaining by her during the night until a tug from Boston arrived and took her in tow for Grimsby. The yawl was on a voyage from London to Middlesborough with a cargo of scrap iron..
