  1. In the year about 1928 late on a winter's evening. A small schooner in distress some distance outside Bray Harbour. The warning was given by a light from the schooner which was sighted from Bray. Seeing the schooner was in trouble they immediately summoned help and got the schooner to the harbour and the crew taken off safely. No lives were lost.
