A Small Boat (5)

SEPTEMBER 11TH. - ARRANMORE, CO.

DONEGAL. At five in the afternoon three men left Burtonport in a small boat for Arranmore, but they had not arrived by nine o’clock. A strong south-west wind was blowing, with a rough sea. Both wind and tide were against them. The motor life-boat K.T.J.S. was launched at 9.30, and half an hour later found the men on a small island.

She brought them and their boat home, arriving at 11.30 that night. - Rewards, £11 10s..
