Noble

FRASERBURGH.—On the 6th June the coxswain of the Life-boat observed a vessel—the schooner Noble, of Banff, laden with coal from Sunderland—driving towards the rocks. A heavy sea was running at the time, and it was deemed advisable to have the Life-boat Anna.

Maria Lee launched to her assistance.

When the Life-boat reached the vessel she was just entering the broken water.

Some of the Life-boat men boarded her, a kedge was run out, after which she was warped out seawards and then taken into the harbour..
