On the 17th February the local fishing coble Brothers did not return to port with the other boats, and a look-out was kept for her. A strong N. breeze was blowing, with a rough sea and snow showers. Eventually she was seen about three miles south of Portpatrick, apparently making no headway. The motor life-boat J. and W. was launched at 4.30 P.M., picked up the coble, and towed her, and her crew of three, into safety. The life-boat arrived back at her station at 5.30 P.M.—Rewards, £3 10s..
