Narrative:
On the landing rollout at phf the tower informed us that there was smoke coming from the left engine. I visually confirmed that this was correct. The first officer and I performed the standard air carrier evacuate/evacuation procedures and evacuate/evacuationed the passenger through the right overwing exit. In addition, the 2 left fire bottles were discharged into the left engine. The passenger were taken to the terminal with no further incident. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated that during the landing rollout a passenger shouted something that was not understood and a few moments later the tower advised the crew of smoke from the left engine nacelle. The reporter said 2 fire bottles were used and evacuate/evacuation procedures begun. Later a mechanic was called to investigate the source of the smoke and nothing was found and report cleared. During the landing rollout no fire or overheat warning was displayed.
