Col. Courtenay Morgan PERILOUS V AHTINQ ADVENTURE Colonel Coal-tenay Morgan's yacht, the Lorna, bound from Harwich to Aberdeen, has been disabled and stranded off the coast near the mouth of the Tweed. The colonel was on board at the time. The yacht was beating for Berwick harbour, and dipped in a heavy sea, which filled the headsail and carried away the jibbootn. Almost immediately after- wards the mainmast was blown away and the craft was rendered helpless. Her movements had been watched by a coastguard, who sum- moned the lifeboat. Fortunately, the tug Forth had gone out to fetch in some herring-boats, and after much difficulty succeeded in getting a rope on board the yacht. The lifeboat stood by and life- saving apparatus was in readiness in case of need. Thousands of people lined the pier, and there was much excitement when the tow- rope broke. This occurred twice in quick succession, and the yacht grounded near Spittal Point. She was got off, however, and ultimately, after the third breating of the tow-rope, was safely got into dock. A northerly gale was blowing and the dis- mantled vessel pitched heavily. When &he grounded the crew of fourteen remained on board and sustained no injury
