        PHILIP L. BOYINGTON. - Enterprising, genial and accommodating,
     PHILIP L. BOYINGTON, of Iron River, proprietor of the BOYINGTON Hotel,
     has acquired an enviable reputation as "mine host," and is especially
     popular with the traveling public, being ever mindful of the wants and
     comfort of his guests.  A son of ANDREW J. and LEFA (WAIT) BOYINGTON,
     he was born, July 29, 1876, in Menominee, Wisconsin, of substantial
     New England ancestry.  Further parental and ancestral history may be
     found on another page of this work, in connection with the sketch of
     his father, ANDREW J. BOYINGTON.
        A lad of six years when he came with his parents to Iron River, MR.
     BOYINGTON has since made this place his home.  On attaining his major-
     ity his father gave him a half interest in his property and his busi-
     ness, and they were associated in the management of affairs until
     1906, when MR. BOYINGTON bought out his father's share of the house
     and livery, and has since been sole proprietor and manager.  In addi-
     tion to caring for these, he likewise has charge of the home farm, on
     which all the milk, vegetables, poultry and eggs used in the hotel,
     and the greater part of the hay and grain used in the livery, are pro-
     duced.  MR. BOYINGTON married ABBIE GILMAN, and they have one child,
     GLADYS BOYINGTON.
