 Officer Edwin. Johnson, of Hartford, of Stafford Springs birth, and long time residence, is one of those recently pro- noted to be sergeant of the police in that city. The Hartford Times published, in connection with the announcement, very good portrait of MT. Johnson, also the following notice: Edwin Johnson, No. 12, is one of the older members of the force, having begun doing regular duty in Sep tember, 1875. It was little more than a year later, November 10, 1876, when he was appointed regular policeman. Off, cer Johnson has for a number of years been doing regular duty at the union de- not opd ic poor with nearly every branch of crookedness known to the crooks profession. With the knowledge gained at the station he is certainly valuable man to the depart ment, and will make valuable sergeant. Should he be assigned to what might be called the depot precinct, the same excel lent protection to passengers and citizens will be afforded as has been in the past.n
