DONNA NOOK, LINCOLNSHIRE. — The Life-boat Rtehqrd was launched at 4.30 A.M., on the 19th January, a telephonemessage having been received from Saltfleet reporting a vessel in distress. On reaching the spot it was ascertained that a steamer had been ashore, bat had got off again, and, the coxswain of the Lifeboat having indicated to the captain his position, he got under weigh, and the Life-boat started for her station. On her way back, the four-masted ship Altair, of Bremen, laden with wheat, from San Francisco for Hull, was seen ashore, and the boat was at once steered in her direction.

On reaching her, the captain requested the Life-boat men to remain by until high water. They did so, and after throwing part of the cargo overboard, the ship was got off with the aid of four steamtugs, and was towed to the Humber..
