Dunbar, Haddingtonshire, and St.

Andrews, Fifeshire.—On the 27th De- cember the steam trawler Ebor Abbey, of Aberdeen, ran aground on the Carr Rocks, Fife Ness, while bound with a crew of nine to Granton for bunker coal.

A light to moderate W.S.W. breeze was blowing, with a smooth sea and fog.

The news was received from the coast- guard and the Dunbar motor life-boat George and Sarah Strachan and the St.

Andrews pulling and sailing life-boat John and Sarah Hatfield were launched soon after 6 P.M. The life-boats found the trawler surrounded by rocks and unable to move until the tide came in.

She had a big list and there was a risk that she might turn over. The life- boats stood by until, at about 11.30 P.M., the trawler refloated, and finding that no serious damage had been done, went on her way. Both life-boats then returned to their stations, Dunbar arriving back at 2.40 A.M., and St.

Andrews at 2.30 A.M.—Rewards, Dun- bar, £14 19s.; St. Andrews, £40 2s. Qd..
