Capt. Lewis Barley, the veteran passen-
ger conductor of the Valley Branch, b. X
o. Railroad, made bis last trip on Friday,
Of last week, he having been retired on a
pension of S12j day. In length of ser
yico Capt. Barley was the Oldest conductor
m the United States, he having been on
constant duty as railroad employee
since 1911, excepting the four years of the
war. He first served as a fireman, but in
l-i2 he was made conductor Of freight
train, and in lS4j was given the Place OF
passenger conductor, a position he has
held ever since, with the exception OF
interval above mentioned. No more faith
ful, honest or efficient employee has ever
served any railroad company than Capt.
Barley, and during all these years no has
never had an accident by which one OF
bis passengers was injured. A record that
is probably without a parallel in the his
tory Of railroading, and one that this
veteran railroader can well be proud Of.
Capt Barley is moderately well of and
owns a nice home in Winchester. He IS
60 years old, but is still a hale aud active
man, apparently good for a number
Of years yet Of active service. a life he
would himself have preferred. lie will
be greatly missed along this line where
his face and form has 50 long been daily
familiar.
