FEBRUARY 6TH. - PETERHEAD, ABERDEENSHIRE.

At 9.40 P.M. the coastguard reported a vessel ashore at Buchanness. A strong S.E. wind was blowing, with a heavy sea and poor visibility. The motor life-boat Julia Park Barry of Glasgow was launched at 9.55 P.M. and found the S.S. Zitella, of London, broadside on to the sea in a small bay. She had a crew of thirty-three and was bound from Norway to Leith. Her decks were awash and the crew on the bridge. As the life-boat was dropping anchor the coastguard life-saving apparatus got a line aboard from the shore, and rescued the whole crew while the life-boat stood by. The life-boat returned to her station at 1.45 A.M. - Rewards, £12 19s.
