Sinking of The August from Papenburg 13/14 august 1866

I am researching my family history and believe an ancestor of mine George Gunn captained a ship called the Paragon which on the night of 13/14 August 1866 rescued five people from a boat that was sinking called the August. The next day the rescued people were dropped off at Bornholm via a fishing boat. I was hoping there might be some records in Bornholm that could tell me more
