The Life-boat Thomas Bewick was launched at 8.15 A.M., on the 19th May, to the assistance of two cobles which had put to sea, and had been overtaken by bad weather and rough sea. The danger flag was hoisted at the mouth of the harbour to warn the boats of the danger of coming in, and the first boat put about and made for the Inner Fame Islands. The life-boat went some distance to sea, but as the other coble was not in sight she re- turned to harbour. Later in the day the coble was seen making for the harbour, together with an Eyemouth fishing-boat, the Nazerine. The Life- boat again put off and convoyed both vessels into safety..
