MAY 23RD. - ST. IVES, CORNWALL.

At 6.13 P.M. the coastguard passed to the life-boat station a message from the resident naval officer at Penzance, that a vessel with a dangerous list was about four miles N.E. of Pendeen and was making for St. Ives.

A strong N.W. breeze was blowing, with a rough sea. The motor life-boat Caroline Oates Aver and William Maine was launched at 6.25 P.M. and found the S.S. Bidassoa, of Falmouth, laden, and bound, with a crew of sixteen, from Avonmouth to Plymouth.

Her cargo had shifted, and she required a pilot. The life-boat guided the Bidassoa towards the harbour until a pilot took charge, and then returned to her station, arriving at 7.27 P.M.
