Well, six names later (George E. Wood, Russell 9, Martin Kehoe, Peter Spano, Edith Mathiesen, and Philip T. Feeney),
125 years after transforming from hull #7 at Bethlehem Steel Sparrows Point MD, to a Baker-Whiteley Coal co. boat
after many crews lost to time and countless jobs and
lost numbers of miles in salt water and fresh,
and all the ravages of neglect,
sabotage,
and time
scrapped from the bottom yesterday without
upsetting the crane,
Philip T. Feeney is gone.
Closure I hope.
Many thanks to Skip Mildrum for the first photo and the last three. Click on the other photos to see the tugster post where I first used them.

The FEENEY obviously died along time ago, so this was merely her long delayed funeral. Still, it’s always sad to see a proud old worker going to the breakers like this. Rest in peace, Philip T. Feeney.
