Green's Landing.

For the Daily Press
Very few of the people of this vicinity know
where Green's Landing is. 1t is situated on
Deer Isle thoroughfare, half way from Rock
land to Mt Desert, and the inland passage for
all navigation going east or coming west
Green's Landing has lately come into note,
as being very favorably situated for doing a
large business in furnishing fishermen and
coasters, it being in the immediate vicinity of
fishing grounds, and having fine harbor for
coasters, and in heavy weather large amount
of shipping congregate here. Great quanti-
ties of HOLSTERS, clam and porgie bait are pro-
cured in this location, and sent to Massachu-
setes, besides furnishing home market. The
Portland and Machias steamer will make this
one of her landings, it being favorable wa
tering place. Parties from Boston and also of
this city have recently located at Green's
Landing, for doing general business, and
the indications are it will be quite business
mart for Portland. OTTO.
