Febo
PENARTH, GLAMORGANSHIRE.—At 1 P.M.
on the 14th October the barque Febo, of Genoa, exhibited signals of distress, having lost her fore and mainmasts, and having parted from three chain cables.
A steam-tug took the vessel in tow, and part of the Life-boat crew went on board the barque and helped to rig a jury mast on which sail might be set to ease the tow-rope. The Life-boatmen also assisted to cut away the wreckage alongside, and the vessel was taken into dock. She carried a crew of fourteen men..
