Under the arrangenents of this organization duties, re re shared, ships were taken in, urn and the money earned by1 nembers of the association was livided. That is the working plan of1 he organization at the present ime. There are seven pilots staioned in Southport, and two in Vilmington. It is the duty of the even men down here to ever be m the lookout for incoming ships, o meet them at the bar and to >ut a member of their group .board any incoming vessel whose Captain desires a pilot. When it comes time for one f the pilots to carry up the next hip, it is known as his first ioard. He and the pilot who is o follow him remain on duty hroughout the day from day- i ight until dark until he has had j , board, moving his second board iartner up to first place. Ships, .re taken in order, and there is! lever any friction among the j nembers. The pilot who is first! ioard is in charge of the affairs; f the pilot office until he gets aj hip, thus passing the job of boss round among the membership. Dean of the local pilots is ,'aptam Tommie St. George, a eteran of the early days of pilting. He has a wealth of ineresting stories about his seaoing experiences. Next to him in point of serice is his nephew, Harold St. ieorge, manager of the pilot as-! ociation. Fred Willing, one of the youn-' er members of the association, ) next in point of service.
