On the 15p value is the wooden top-sail French Schooner "PETIT RAYMOND".
She was a wooden Schooner belonging to Nantes and when she was wrecked she was bound to Southampton from Le Legue (St. Brieuc) with a cargo of potatoes.
She ran ashore in Belle Bay, near Houmet, at North East tip of Alderney on September 19th 1906. Strong winds split her mainsail when she was in the Channel and she was forced back towards the Guernsey coast. Swept forward by the seas she became stranded.
Her crew of 5 were saved but the Master went back on board and had to be forcibly removed, and just in the nick of time, for no sooner had they taken him off a big "Roller" came in and, lifting the Schooner, carried it right ashore onto "Little Bonnie" rock where she lurched over, swamped by the sea, and became a total wreck.
Log Book May 1987.
