Shortly before 7 A.M. on the 3rd July a tele- phone message was received from Cemlyn stating that a steam trawler was ashore at Carmel Point, and asking that the Holyhead Life-boat might be sent. The steam Life-boat Duke of Northumberland was at once despatched, and on arriving at the scene found the steam trawler Loroone, of Grimsby, anchored near the " West Mouse " with her propeller and rudder damaged; and in a helpless condition. It appeared that the trawler after striking the rocks drifted off with the flood tide, and the master and mate lowered the ship's boat and laid out two small anchors. During this operation the boat was capsized owing to the swell, and both men were thrown into the water. The mate succeeded in regaining his ship, and the master swam ashore. When the Life- boat reached the vessel the mate was in charge, and at his urgent request the vessel was towed into Holyhead Harbour..
