ARBROATH.—At about 7 P.M. on the 13th April, while a strong gale was blowing from S.E., the fishing-boat Royal Arch, of Arbroath, was seen attempting to make the harbour. A very heavy sea was running, the tide was low and she was apparently in danger of either foundering or running on the rocks.

The Life-boat William Soutar was therefore launched, proceeded to the bar and stood by the boat until she safely entered the harbour..
