JULY 9TH. - ROSSLARE HARBOUR, CO. WEXFORD. At 8.35 in the morning the Arklow smack St. Gerrade put into Rosslare Harbour and reported that a yacht was sinking on the North Dogger Bank, Wexford Bar. The skipper had tried, but without success, to take his own boat alongside. A moderate S.W. gale was blowing with rain and a rough sea on the bank. The motor life-boat Mabel Marion Thompson was launched at 8.49 A.M. She saw wreckage, and three of her crew waded ashore and searched the bank, but all they found was a dinghy. While this was being done the lifeboat received a wireless message that the crew of three of the yacht - the Shielia. of Dublin - had got ashore. The life-boat returned at 11.2 A.M. with the dinghy in tow.
