At 6.30 A.M. on the 26th December fourteen of the cobles belonging to Filey put to sea for the purpose of hauling their lines, and at about 8 A.M. the wind commenced to freshen, causing most of the boats to run for safety. By 10 A.M. all the boats had reached safety with the exception of two, named the Annie and the Marjorie. These boats were' about four miles to the north of the Brigg and in considerable danger. The Life-boat Hollon the Third was launched, and on reaching the boats supplied the crews with life-belts. She then stood by each boat as she came into safety. In the case of the Marjorie it was necessary to take the coble in tow in order to save her and her crew of three men..
