MEMORANDA

A large Pilot Boat belonging to Miramichi with five persons on board, was driven to sea in on of the last gales.  After having been several days in a very exposed and perilous situation, the persons on board were providentially rescued by a vessel somewhere between P.E. Island and the Magdalene Islands.  The boat was nearly filled with water, and the hands were all but exhausted.   These people arrived here on foot, from the Gut of Cansau, on Monday, in a very destitute state, en route to Miramichi.

As soon as the circumstances of the case were made known, a liberal contribution was made for them here, to enable them to proceed on their journey.
