In stature Chief Crowley is somewhat
above the average sized man. He is
strongly and compactly built. He has q
pleasing address and manly, military
bearing, which at once impresses one with
his strong individuality of character. For
a number of years he has held the highest
office in the Police Department with sigma
honor and distinction. He was first elected
Chief of Police in 1866 and served in that
capacity until 1873, when he was succeeded
by T. G. Cockrill. Under the new admin
istration in 1880 the Board of Commissioners
appointed Mr.. Crowley, Chief. and he has
held the office continuously ever since,
being regularly reelected every two years.
