WRECKED OFF WELSH COAST COAST

Early on Wednesday morning the Leyland steamer Leysian struck the rocky coast between Strumble Head and St. David's Head, and it is feared will become a total wreck. The vessel was in ballast.

All on board, consisting of cattlemen and the crew, have been landed at Fishguard. A dense fog prevailed at the time.
