Ellen Vair (1)
CADGWITH AND LIZARD, CORNWALL.— Early on the morning of the 24th May the Cadgwith Life-boat Joseph Armstrong and the Lizard Life-boat Anna Maria were launched and proceeded, under sail and oars, to the assistance of the schooner Ellen Vair, which had been damaged by collision and deserted. On getting near her, a Brixham trawler was found to be close by, having put two men on board.
Four of the Cadgwith Life-boatmen were also put on board, who, with the trawler's men, navigated her to Penzance..
