Julien Marie
ST. IVES, CORNWALL.—The Life-boat James Stevens No. 10 was launched at 5.15 A.M., on the 5th February, while a strong gale was blowing from N.N.E., and proceeded to the brigantine, Julien Marie, of Auray, coal-laden from Swansea, bound for Bordeaux, which had shown signals for assistance. 6he was carrying very little canvas, having only her mainsail and lower topsail set, and tried to make the harbour, but failed to do so owing to the heavy breakers she encountered, and being in addition encumbered by the wreckage of her foretopmast, with yards and sails and her jibboom, which were hanging over her side. As she was fast drifting to leeward, her anchor was let go, but it did not hold, and seeing there was no probability of being able to save the vessel, her crew of six men, taking with them a little dog, got into the Life-boat, and were safely landed. The brigaatine soon afterwards stranded on Porthminster beach, and became a total wreck, her mainmast going by the board when she struck the ground..
