Captain Kimbel’s ferry boat.

The Bellevue ferry boat made its last trip Saturday morning. The season, we understand, has been a profitable one for the owner of the boat, Captain Kimbel.

Richard Eilings, one of Capt. Kimbel’s employees, fell from the top of the ferry boat horse power last Monday and broke three bones in his right hand.
