BOULMER.—A boat, containing four men, being observed off Boulmer during a strong W.N.W. wind and a high sea on the 4th March, the Life-boat Robin Hood of Nottingham put off to her assistance at 7 A.M., and brought ashore the boat and the occupants, who were in an exhausted condition and benumbed by wet and cold.

They were the crew of the schooner Marshall, of Wick, bound from Thurso for the Tyne with flagstones, which was wrecked on the Longstone Rock, Fame Islands.
