George

LLANDDWYN.—At daylight on the 5th October, the schooner George, of Liverpool, bound from Dublin for Port Dinorwic in ballast, was observed to show signal of distress whilst riding heavily at anchor in the bay during a fresh N.W.

gale, and squally weather. The Life-boat Richard and Henry Gould proceeded to her assistance, and put four men on board.

One of the vessel's anchors, which had lost the stock, was hove up, the second anchor was slipped, after buoying the chain, and the ship was got under weigh and taken to Carnarvon..
