CAPTAIN T. w. PHILLIPS
POPULAR IS. S. MASTER

The Marine Digest, published by
jackson B. Corbett whose summer
home is at Burton contained am
article last week on a man whom
everyone ON the island knows in
person-Captain ?. w. Phillips, Of
the S. S. Yashona. The article is
so good we are pleased to reprint
it in full and pass it ON to our To-
cal readers. Captain Phillips is
one of the most obliging shippers
we have ever known, and is a
friend of everyone, whether they
ride regularly or only oceasionly
on the boat between Tacoma and
the South Harbor points. Editor
Capt. Thomas Phillips, msat-
err of the steamer Nashona of the
Vashon Navigation Co, is a native
son, having been born October
1877, at Olympia. AT the age of
il. following the maritime tradi-
tons Of the Phillips family, he
shipped ON the pioneer Puget
Sound sternwheeler Glide, for
many years operated by Capt. j
f. Vanderbilt. Leaving her, lie
worked ON the Skagit Chief, City
of Kingston, George E. Starr Ros-
allie, City of Seattle Sehome and
orher pioneer Puget Sound craft,
in tine meantime moving up from
cabirboy to steyedore. He has
held a mates license, unlimited
from Olympia 10 Cape Flattery,
for % years and besides being in
many other vessels, has served as
mate Of Border Line steamers and
as mate and master in the fleet Of
the Merchants Transportation Co
He has been with the yashon Navi-
cation Go. for the past 10 years
and has commanded the steamers
Vashon, Verona, Yashon IL and
Vashona.
As mentioned, he began his ca
reer on the steamer Glide and it
was here that he first laid claim
TO fame. In those days passengers
wore scarce and if a farmer was
seen coming over a hill, half a mile
away, it was considered gross
breach of etiquette not to wait for
him. Farmer Jones one morning
