KAMSET, ISLE OF MAN.— The Two Sisters Life-boat was launched at about 10.45 A.M. on the 31st October, signals of distress having been shown by a wherry which was riding heavily about three miles N.E. of the harbour during a whole gale from the S.S.W. On reaching the vessel she was found to be the Daniel Yorke, of and from Dundalk, for Irvine.

She had parted one of her chains during the night, and drifted two miles, and, indeed, was fast drifting on to a lee shore.

The crew of four men were taken into the Life-boat, which then attempted to return to the harbour; the gale, however, was so fierce, and the ebb tide so strong, that she could not succeed, and after struggling for an hour and a half, she had to be beached about three miles from her station..
