quent visitor to Belfast in his steam yacht
Adelita and took part in the shoots of the
Belfast Gun Club. For some years before his
death he cruised in these waters in his large
steam yacht Malay, and had staunch friends
wherever he went. Since the foregoing was
! in type we have learned of another instance in
which DR.. Weld rendered help. A lobster fish
erman on Pleasant river. North Haven, who had
lost his boat in bad storm the day before, met
DR. Weld and told him of his misfortune, and
the Doctor put his hand in his pocket and took
out roll of bills and handed it to the fisher
man. 1t was enough to buy 20 foot lobster
sloop and meant a means of livelihood to the
man and his family.
A New INDUSTRY. Work has begun at the
fish plant of C. E. McIntire. which is a new in
dustry for Belfast. From his fishing station
at Frenchboro Mr.. McIntire has received 10 tons
of smoked herring. These came in bulk and are
to have the skins removed and and then pack
ed in boxes, ten pounds in box, for shipment
This will give employment to crew of 20 or
more all winter In this process each fish is
handled three times. At Frenchboro they are
sailed, then strung on sticks to be smoked and
in the latter process are moved several times.
Mr. McIntire is also shipping some picked
herring in drums and is receiving fresh fish.
At his wharf last Saturday there was a power
boat, sloop and two-topmast schooner the
latter taking coal on her return trip to French
boro. The sloop and schooner both have aux
iliary power. The contract for the building to
cover the new part of the wharf calls for its
completion by april first and large crew will
be employed as soon as he lumber is ready.
Meanwhile work is progressing on the Lane
building at the head OF the wharf to fit it fo-
offices for Mr.. Mclntire and the Consumers
Fuel Co.
