terday 'on the Guiana" was Harbor-
master S. Fischer.
Captain Fischer who came to St. Thorn
as in the palmy days of the island, is a
native Of Denmark and first set foot on
our soil on the 9th day Of October 1880,
as an employee Of the firm Of Bache q
Company.
On the death Of Captain Bache, Cap
tain Fischer and Nh. Carpenter, another
Of the firms employee, continued the
business for Mrs. Bache.
After the firm of Bache and Company
closed its doors Captain Fischer bought
two vessels, a brigautine and a schooner
which he sailed himself for some years
until he ent red the service OF the Dan
ish Govern 3nt as first assistant harbor-
master in 1895. This position he filled
until the Transfer when he was promoted
to the position which he has just given
up on account Of failing health.
Have you ever had an acci ent Cap
tain ?" the retiring harborm ster was
asked by a reporter Of this paper.
Il am appy to say thar during the
27 year, | have been engaged as pilot in
the h2 Dor Of St. Thomas there has been
no .cident entaiIing the payment OF
damage by the Government, by the in
surance companies, or by the owners.
Such a record speaks we'll for Captain
Fischer and our reporter could not do
otherwise than congratulate him.
During the 43 years that Captain
Fischer lived on this island, he made
many friends by his bluff and kindly dis
position and, indeed, like the majority
of the Danes who have lived long on the
island, he became identified with the is
land and its people. The Ties that con-
meet the captain with ST. Thomas being
exceptionally strong as he leaves buried
in it's soil a dear wife, a beloved daughter
and an only son. Thus it was that as
he sprightly old mar shook hands with
US on departing the thought that was
uppermOst in our mind was: Those who
know our people are departing so swiftly
and the ends of the bond which time
and distance must sever might never be
picked up by the new corners.
May the genial Captain hive long and
happy in the midst of his family.
In expressing our pleasure at Captain
w. O. SlmmondS' promotion as harbor-
master, we wish him a long and success
