HARTLEPOOL. — The schooner Peter Brown, of Montrose, bound from Leith for London, was seen to strike the Beacon Bocks on the evening of the 3rd November, and to show immediately two flares.

The Hartlepool No. 2 Life-boat Charles Ingleby, was promptly launched and proceeded to the vessel. Four tugs had already reached her, and at the request of the master three of the Life-boat men went on board to assist the crew. The schooner, which had broken her rudder, was eventually towed off the rocks and taken into harbour..
