The No. 2 Life-boat Leicester was launched at 3 A.M. on the 20th September to the assistance of the fishing dandy Belinda,, of Great Yarmouth, which had grounded about 600 yards from the North Pier Head in a moderate gale from the S.E. and a very rough sea. In consequence of the wind and tide two attempts on the part of the Life-boat to reach the vessel were fruitless, but the third time she succeeded in getting alongside, and rescued the crew, consisting of BIX men. The boat was then compelled to ride at anchor until she was taken in tow by a steam-tug. The crew of the Belinda, had launched their own boatprior to the arrival of the Life-boat, but it was almost immediately swamped..
