LYNMOUTH.—The Life-boat Louisa was launched at 3 P.M. on the 19th February, a vessel having been reported to be in distress. A whole gale was blowing from the E.N.E., the sea was rough, the weather was thick and snow was falling. On reaching the vessel she was found to be the pilot-cutter Pollie, of Cardiff; she had been damaged apparently by collision and had been abandoned by her crew. She was towed by the Life-boat into Ilfracombe harbour..
