Maine Central Engineers.

The Kennebec journal of Saturday last
gave sketches and portraits of a number Of
the Maine Central locomotive engineers
Among them was William II. Richardson
who ran an engine on the Belfast branch
sixteen years ago. He is now running pas
senger trains between Portland and Skow-
hogan. The Journal also gave portrait of
William =. Underwood, who formerly ran
on the Belfast branch and married a Belfast
girl, Miss Annabel Miller. The journal says:
William =. Underwood first saw the stars
in Fayette, August -, 1857. He initiated him
self into the mysteries of locomotive engi-
neering in 1879. He has been a runner for
eight years He was the first engineer to
haul train to Mount Desert Ferry He
controlled the ''air" on the ''Flying Yam
kee' for some time and the night Pullman,
Nos. > and II. Bangor to Portland, and is
now working, in harmony with Conductor
Anderson Nos. - and Is, Skowhegan to
Portland. Bills''s chief drawback is his ma
tlral aversion to the gentltr sex. He likes
to have his machine look neat and is an
earnest advocate of everything good. He
swears by .']lldas Priest whoever that
gentleman may be, and ought to go to Con-
gress. Billy can stand anything but crazy
man between the rails, but he says the line
has got to be drawn somewhere. Three
nights week Billy swaps stories in the
office of the HeSelton, Skowhegan, and
draws his ratinns from the menus of this
we'll known hotel, and he can eat.
