A Steamer (3)
JANUARY 26TH. - TOBERMORY, ARGYLLSHIRE. A steamer had been reported ashore on Tiree, but the wind was at hurricane force and compelled the life-boat to heave to, and later she returned to Tobermory, as the weather was getting worse. The life-boat made a second attempt, but the weather was worse, rescue was impossible, and the life-boat was recalled. The crew of the steamer were all rescued from the shore by the coastguard life-saving rocket apparatus at Tiree. - Rewards, £20 9s.
