— On the 13th May the s.s. Turrethill, of Newcastle- on - Tyne, whilst bound from Goole with a cargo of coal to Poole, Dorset- shire, capsized when off Southwold. A strong W.N.W. wind was blowing at the time, with a rough sea, and unhappily there was a sad loss of twelve lives. The disaster occurred in the early morning, and one of the men belonging to the vessel was picked up by a passing steamer bound for the Baltic. This vessel placed the man on board the Shipwash Light-vessel, and a message was at once sent to the main- land. On the receipt of the message the No. 2 Life-boat Edward Z. Dresden was promptly launched and proceeded to the Light-vessel, and brought the man ashore. In the meanwhile search was made by the Southwold and Kessingland Life-boats for other members of the crew of the steamer, but without avail..
