Oregon
RHYL.—On the evening of the 2nd August a rowing-boat named the Oregon, of Rhyl, was seen to capsize near the end of the pier. The wind was blowing from the W.N.W. and the weather was fine, but there was a choppy sea. Fearing that the occupants, fifteen in number, of the boat would be unable to reach the shore, the coastguard on duty at once fired a signal rocket, in response to which the Life-boat Jane Martin was launched and towed the boat back to Rhyl, those who had been on board her having fortunately been able to gain the land with the help of persons on the shore..
