At 6 A.M. on the 10th February signals of distress were observed on the North end of the Barnard Sand. The wind at the time was blowing a strong breeze from the S,W. and the sea was rough. The No. 2 Life-boat, St. Michael's, Paddington, was soon launched through a very heavy surf, and made for the distressed brig, the Marnhull, of Weymouth, bonnd from London to Middlesborough, with scrap iron. She had sank on the North, end of the Barnard Sand, and her crew of six men had taken refuge in the rigging, from which one of them fell and was unfortunately killed. After eight attempts the Life-boat succeeded in taking off the five survivors and landed them at Lowestoft..
