Eagerfgelh, of Oslo
OCTOBER 18TH. - DUNMORE EAST, CO. WATERFORD. At 12.30 in the afternoon the harbour master received a wireless message from the motor ship Eagerfgelh, of Oslo, that she was off the harbour, had trouble with her engine, and needed a pilot to take her to a safe anchorage. As the pilot boat was not available, the motor life-boat, Annie Blanche Smith was launched at one o’clock. A fresh east-south-easterly wind was blowing, with a moderate sea. The life-boat put a life-boatman on board the ship, and took her into harbour, returning to her station at 2.45. Later the pilot boat took her up the river and, next day, after repairing her engines, the Eagerfgelh went on her way to South Africa. - Property salvage case.
