NOVEMBER 5TH. - ROSSLARE HARBOUR, CO. WEXFORD. During the afternoon information was received from the principal light-keeper of the Tuskar Rock Lighthouse, that one of the keepers had cut an artery in his arm and ought to be brought ashore at once. A N.N.E. wind was blowing, with a rough, breaking sea. The motor lifeboat Mabel Marion Thompson was launched at 4.45 P.M., taking a boarding boat with her, and reached the light-house at 5.30 P.M. It was only with great difficulty, in the heavy sea, that the injured man was got into the life-boat, and she landed him safely at 8 P.M. He said that he had never seen a relief made at the Tuskar in such severe weather. - Expenses defrayed by the Commissioners of Irish Lights..
