pursuits ; James L., of Norfolk, who is captain of the steamboat "Matthews :" and Horace G., the subject of this sketch.


Horace G. Munden attended the public schools at Atlantic City, and after leaving school worked in a mill for a short time. He then went on the water for the Merritt Wreck- ing Company, working as cook and deck-hand. His next work was steamboating for John H. Cannon & Company, with whom he remained 18 months. He was deck-hand on the "Vik- ing," and also held that position on several other vesels. He received his pilot's license in 1897, after which he was mate on the "Suc- cess," for three months. He was captain of the "Sylph" two months, and then went on the tug "Lambert's Point." and later on the tug "Philadelphia," of which he was first officer. While on the tug "Portsmouth," he was pro- moted to the position of captain, after which, in September, 1900, he entered the service of the Norfolk & Atlantic Terminal Company. He is now filling the position of second captain of the steamboat "Belle Horton," and is considered one of the most capable men on that vessel.


Mr. Munden is a Democrat in politics. He is well known and highly esteemed among sea- faring men, and possesses many good traits of character.


h H. WHITE .* a prominent citizen of Portsmouth, Virginia, at the date of this writing was superintendent of the Portsmouth Gas Company. He was born in Charleston. South Caro- lina, in 1866.


Mr. White was reared in his natal city, and is a graduate of the South Carolina Military Academy. After graduation he served an ap- prenticeship as a machinist, then ran on the railroad for a time. He was next employed as a draughtsman by the South Carolina Rail- road Company, and subsequently had a run on that road for a short time. He went to Macon, Georgia, where, in 1889, he became superin-


tendent of a gas, electric and street railway company, and afterward went to Belleville, Illi- nios, where he rebuilt a plant, of which he took charge. He continued in that city until Janu- ary, 1893, when he came to Portsmouth, Vir- ginia, and assumed the position of superintend- ent of the Portsmouth Gas Company. This concern was chartered and established April 17. 1854. and was conducted very successfully for a number of years. It then ceased to pay dividends, but since Mr. White became super- intendent, in 1893, its affairs have been in a healthy and prosperous condition. H. L. Watts was the treasurer of the company, and Mr. White later acted in that capacity for a period of three years. The daily capacity of the plant has been increased from 20,000 to 150,000 cu- bic feet, and the equipment is of the later pat- tern. There are about 850 consumers in the city of Portsmouth. Mr. White has entire su- pervision of all work outside of the office, and has charge of the street lighting. In the streets there are 84 lights, 14 being commercial lights of 2,000 candle power. The gas plant is at the north end of Green street ; and is equipped with a dynamo and other modern machinery. The charter was renewed in February, 1884. when the electrical plant was added, granting the privilege of lighting Portsmouth City and Norfolk County. They have 2-inch, cast-iron mains in the ground, and are probably the only company which has them.


Mr. White was united in marriage with Miss Voelker, of Belleville, Illinois, who died August 21, 1894, leaving one child, Ann Voel- ker, who is living with Mr. White's mother. in Charleston, South Carolina.


Mr. White formed a second marital union with Cyrena White, of Portsmouth, a daugh- ter of Littleton White, and granddaughter of John K. Cook, one of the prominent residents of this county in his day. Three children were born to them. namely: Henry H., Jr., who died in infancy : Henry H .. Jr. ; and Cyrena. The family residence is in Park View. Politi- cally Mr. White is a Democrat. He is a Ma-

William E. Bruce attended school at Churchland, and early in life began farming. This occupation he has always followed, and has made his home on the farm on which he was born. He has 100 acres of finely improved trucking land, and also carries on general farming. In this he has met with more than usual success, and is considered one of the best posted farmers in his section of the coun- ty. Mr. Bruce is a good citizen, always will- ing to aid in any worthy enterprise.


Mr. Bruce married Zue Love. who died in 1882. He is independent in politics. Relig- iously, he is a member of the Churchland Bap- tist Church.


B ENJAMIN F. WAINWRIGHT .* who is serving as first officer of the steamer "Ocean View." was born in Salisbury, Maryland, in 1873. He is a son of Isaac J. and Margaret B. Wainwright, who were natives of Maryland, and are now living in Baltimore. Isaac J. Wainwright is a retired mariner.


Benjamin F. Wainwright attended the schools of Salisbury, and after leaving school went to sea as cook. He continued working in that capacity for six years, when he became mate, and sailed on several different vessels for the following three years. He began steamboating, at Norfolk, in 1894, as deck- hand and cook, and was licensed as a pilot in


1895. His first vessel was the ".Albemarle," on which he served as mate. He then entered the United States lighthouse service as deck- hand. and continued thus 18 months. For the next three months, he acted as mate on the tug "Willard," and afterward on the following tugs .- "Grace Titus." "J. S. Hoskins," "Esh- erick" and "Cahill." After leaving the "Ca- hill." he was appointed first officer of the steamer "Ocean View," in which capacity he is now serving. He is an expert seaman, and his future looks very promising.


Mr. Wainwright is a member of the Royal Arcanum, and of the Association of Pilots & Masters of Steam Vessels of the United States, Protective Harbor, No. 9.


IRGINIC'S L. BACKUS .* a well-to- do farmer of Lambert's Point, Nor- folk County, Virginia, and one of the most highly esteemed citizens of that place, was born May 22, 1859. on the farm which he now owns and culti- vates. He is a son of Richard S. Backus, and a grandson of Anthony Backus.


Richard S. Backus was born on the same farm, and died in 1881, aged 64 years. Ile married Anna S. Taylor, who was born in Norfolk County, and they reared 13 children. of whom nine are still living. namely : Jane W .; Lydia: Richard S .. Jr. : William H. ; Ben F .: Virginins L .; Mary D .: AAmelia; and Herbert T.


Virginius L. Backus owns 28 acres of land, on which he lives. He also owns another farm of 2812 acres. In addition to these, he has considerable property in Norfolk and Newport News. He has always met with much success in farming, and is looked upon as one of the best agriculturists in Norfolk County. He takes a deep interest in movements which pro- mote the advancement and progress of his community, and willingly gives his support to any worthy enterprise.


Mr. Backus was married in 1883 to Mar-

tha Robertson, who was born in Norfolk County, and is a daughter of William Robert- son. They have one child, Pearl L. Politi- cally, Mr. Backus is a Democrat. He is a member of the I. O. O. F. He attends the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. He is well known in Norfolk County, and is held in high esteem by all, as an honest, upright cit- izen.


ILLIAM J. LUKE, a storekeeper at Berkley. Virginia, for the Norfolk & Southern Railroad Company. has proved himself worthy to fill that position by his promptitude and unremitting attention to his business. He was born in Camden County, North Carolina, March 19, 1871, and is a son of Col. G. G. and Mary (Wright) Luke, the latter a native of Camden County, who is now an honored resident of Berkley, Virginia, about 58 years of age.


Col. G. G. Luke was an attorney-at-law who was well and favorably known, stood high as a worthy and enterprising citizen of his community, and was of distinguished ancestry. He was reared in Portsmouth, and after com- pleting his education started out in life as an attorney-at-law, and practiced extensively in the First. District of North Carolina for many years. He served as lieutenant-colonel of the 52nd Regiment, North Carolina Infantry, dur- ing the Confederate War, until taken prisoner at Hatteras, when he was taken to Washing- ton, and afterward to Fort Warren, in Boston harbor, and exchanged after six or eight months. In politics, Colonel Luke was an ar- dent Democrat, and was the leader of his party for years in the First District of North Caro- lina. He served in the House of Representa- tives as petition and resolution clerk, during President Cleveland's administration. In fra- ternal circles he affiliated with the Masonic or- der. He and his wife were members of the Protestant Episcopal Church. Colonel Luke


departed this life in Berkley, Virginia, but was taken to Elizabeth City, North Carolina, for burial, being much mourned by all who knew him.


William J. Luke is the eldest of seven chil- dren, the others being .- Paul B., a yardmaster in the employ of the Norfolk & Southern Rail- road Company, who resides at Berkley; Gran- ville G., a machinist ; Lucinda L., who died at the age of 13 years ; Sallie ; Addie, who attends school ; and Latham Lewis.


The primary education of William J. Luke was obtained under the instruction of his father, after which he attended the academy at Camden. When his school days had ended, he departed for a time on a government surveying tour, which lasted nearly two years, and sur- veved, in 1887-1888, the State line between Virginia and North Carolina. After return- ing from this trip he surveyed what was then the Albemarle & Pantego Railroad, but has since become known as the Pamlico Division of the Norfolk & Southern Railroad. This trip consumed six months, after which he en- tered the service of the Norfolk & Southern Railroad Company as brakeman. He contin- ued thus for seven months, at which time he was promoted to be a conductor, and served as such satisfactorily for nine years. Mr. Luke then acted as yardmaster at Berkley until March 14. 1900, when he was appointed to take charge of the company's store, and has held that position since then with great credit to himself.


In 1893, Mr. Luke was united in marriage with Lillie Maud Holland, a native of Berkley, Virginia, and a daughter of William N. Hol- land, also a resident of that town. They have one child,-Mary Gladys. Mr. Luke attends St. Thomas' Protestant Episcopal Church, while his wife attends the Berkley Baptist Church. The subject of this sketch is a mem- ber of the Order of Railway Conductors. In every way, he is a worthy, upright citizen, and one who helps to give character to a com- munity.
