Shortly after midnight on the 24th-25th Decem- ber, whilst the s.s. Glenrnoor, of jSTew- castle-on-Tyne, was riding at anchor waiting to enter the harbour, a gale of wind sprang up from S.W., with hurri- cane squalls, causing her anchors to drag. The Life-boat Isabella was launched and, as the vessel was very near to the rocks, she stood by her throughout the night.

The Life-boat then left her and returned to her station..
