eB- It is supposed that George Vernon, of
Bordentown, is the oldest active locomotive
engineer in this country, his service extending
from about $780, when he ran an engine on
the New Castle and Frenchtown railroad, 164
miles, in Delaware. He left this road in 1888
and was at once taken in charge by Robert /.
Stevens, who saw him in Philadelphia, and
secured his services for the old Camden and
Amboy company. He removed to Borden
town from South Ambox-in February, 1884,
and has since t=7ed thereand retained his posi-
tion~in the company's Service, being now
superintendent of the engines at the Borden
town round house. When Mr.. Vernon first
entered the company's service, they had but
seven engines and he was given charge of No.
8. Mr.. Vernon has in his possession lease
dated July LIST, 1887, given to him by the
Railroad Company, signed for Edwin A.
Stevens, superintendent, by Richard Shipper,
agent, and witnessed by F. r. Stevens, for
house belonging to the company at the Bor-
dentown depot, for which he was to pay the
monthly rent of three dollars and thirty-three
and one-third cents, on the first day of each
and every month, to have and to hold the
said house during the term in which he shall
be in the employ and pay of the said company
and no longer, under the penalty of one dol
lar for each and every day he may SO hold
over" The company could not have been
very strict, or had great confidence in Mr..
Vernon for they did not trouble him about
signing the lease. Mr.. Vernon is still hale
and hearty and great reader, especially Of
religious topics. There is some talk of secur-
ing him to run the " johnny Bull, the oldest
Camden and Amboy engine, which is now be-
ing repaired for exhibition at the Centennial
Exposition. The Johnny Bull and the old
engineer would be quite curiosity in this age
