Retired From the Force.

Patrolnaan Grattan has laid down his
baton and resigned from the police force
after serving the city faithfully for ten
years. He discharged his duties salts
factorily and retained the esteem of his
fellow citizens to the day of his resigna-
tion. While under Chief Chase he abso-
lutely declined to act as spy on saloon
keepers and offered to quit the service
before he would resort to questionable
tactics in catching violators of the law.
When leaving the department he received
the following letter from V. M. Smith,
the Superintendent of Police: Il take
pleasure in stating that the bearer, James
Grattan, who honorably discharged the
duties of patrolman for ten years last
past, leaves the department today with
credit to himself and the force of which
he was q good and true member. What
ever his new sphere may be I bespeak a
kind word for him, and feel satisfied in
saying that he is an honest, sober, indus
trious and thoroughly reliable man"

agree with every word in Supt. Smiths
