D. M. Philbin passed north last Wednesday morning, having tar-
ried here over night to greet old friends, to take charge of the
docks of the South Shore, all of them, and the business transacted
thereon, a position for which he is eminently fitted both by na-
ture and by experience acquired in a similar position here. We
don't know the title nor the pay but as he left a good superinten-
dency in Nebraska to take it, both are no doubt satisfactory.
