Arklow, Co. Wicklow_On the night of the 20th November, 1935, fishermen saw the local fishing coble Rosealean, about, a mile south of Arklow, showing signals of distress. A strong east breeze was blowing, with a rough sea.

The weather was thick, with rain. The motor life-boat John Taylor Cardwell was launched at 9 P.M., and found the Rosealean, whose engine had broken down, anchored near the rocks. She was leaking, and her crew of four were exhausted. The life-boat anchored, veered in, and got a line on board.

She then towed the coble back to Arklow, and returned to her station at 10 P.M.—Rewards, £16 6s. 6d..
