The Life-boat Co-operator No. 2 was called out during the afternoon of the 8th May, a small vessel having been observed in difficulties off the " Hangman," near Combmartin. The sea was heavy with a moderate gale blowing and weather very cold. On reaching the vessel she proved to be the ketch Honour, of Jersey, bound for Ilfracombe. The ketch was making water, but the skipper stated that he did not want any help as he hoped to get his vessel into port. In case anything should go wrong the Life-boat stood by her until she arrived at Ilfracombe..
