ALEC
MUNRO
PRINCE
RUPERT
says
good-bye;
today
to
the
dean
of
local
steamboat
men,
Alec
Munro,
chief
engineer
of
the
steamer
Prince
Rupert,
who
lias
plied
these
waters
for
thirty-seven
years
or
more
and
who
is
making
his
farewell
triptoday.
Jit
the
conclusion
of
this
voyage,
he
goes
ashore
from
his
ship
to
go
into
retirement
after
many
years
of
efficient
and
'faithful
service.
It
is
safe
to
say
that
there
is
no
better
known
and
no
more
highly
esteemed
steamship
officer
than
Mr.
Munro.
In
his
retirement
we
are
regretfully
reminded
that
the
years
are
passing
and
that
we
are
all
growing
older.
It
recalls
to
recollection
many
pleasant
voyages
we
have
made
with
the
old
school
of
.coastal
steamboaters,
most
of
whom
have
now
.
passed
'into
retirement
and
not
a
few
of
whom
have
embarked
on
the
long
voyage
which
follows
life.
Not
only
we
but
numerous
other
old
friends
will
wish
Mr.
Munnk
many
more
happy
years
in
which
to
enjoy
his
retirement.
When,
we
travel
again
on
his
ship,
we
shall
miss
his
cheery
personality
and
shall
recall
with
pleasant.
remembrance
the
many
voyages
we
made
with
him
through
the
years
since
we
first
met
him
as
a
young
junior
engineer..
