OCTOBER 20TH. - GALWAY BAY. At 9.30 at night a life-boatman reported distress signals from the Milford Haven steam trawler Star of Don, which was in Killeany Bay to the south of the life-boat station. A strong north-east wind was blowing, with a heavy sea. The motor life-boat K.E.C.F. was launched at 9.45 and found the trawler ashore on a reef. She had a crew of twelve.

The life-boat took six of them ashore and, at the master’s request, returned and stood by until 10.30 next morning. She then laid out two anchors for the trawler and tried to tow her, but failed. The trawler refloated later and returned to Milford Haven. - Rewards, £26 6s. 6d..
