Mr.. Holmes, conductor of the accommoda-
ton train that fits so regularly eight times
day between the three sister cities, is truly
veteran on his route of travel. So long as
quarter of century ago he conveyed passen-
gers between the same cities, being in the
employ of Mr.. V. ID. Pinkham who in those
days, before the advent of the railroad, kept
two coaches plying between Augusta and
but one coach was employed, of which Mr..
Holmes, after brief sojourn in California,
became proprietor This coach he drove for
nine years, until the railroad company added
the accommodation train. and secured Mr..
Holmes as its conductor. He has been con-
ductor of this train somewhat more than six
years, making more than fifteen consecutive
years that he has been engaged in transport
ing passengers between Augusta, Hallowell
and Gardiner During 1869 alone, his train
took "a, 5O4 fares between Augusta and Gard
liner, 80, 300 between Augusta and Ilallowel,
and 10, 935 between Halowell and Gardiner.
1t would be interesting TO know accurately
the number of times Mr.. Holmes has passed
between the termini of his route during the
past tw enty-fve years. 1t may be added that
no serious accident ever occurred in conncc-
ton with his train, which fact, considering the
frequent trips, speaks volumes in behalf of
Mr.. Holmes faithful stewardship.
