During a whole westerly gale on Sunday the 22nd February informa- tion was received that a vessel in Wexford Bay was making signals of distress. The crew of the Life-boat were summoned, and the boat was launched as quickly as possible. On reaching the vessel, which proved to be the schooner Alice T., of Wexford, it was found that her anchor was dragging, and the crew, four in number, were desirous of being landed. They were accordingly taken into the Life- boat. About the same time it was noticed that another schooner—The Perseverance—was also dragging her anchors. The Life-boat, therefore, proceeded to her and took off the four men forming the crew. They were then brought ashore. The vessels managed to ride out the gale and the men were able to return aboard the next day when the weather had moderated..
