A GRUDGE AGAINST EsLINGER-
From the time that said Ford became
the confidante of Pratt. said Pratt
seemed TO have a grudge of some kind
against Eslinger, now captain of pO-
Ice. and to hate him. but for what
reason l never knew and tried to poi
son my mind against him. telling ME
TO look out for him, that he was no
friend Of mine, and on many occasions
told me if ne could get a chance he
would get his head. meaning that if he
could get q chance he would get him
of the force. That said Pratt made
this statement many times before and
after he sent Eslinger's name to the
board for removal. Said Eslinger was
a ffrSt-class man in every respect and
a most efficient officer, always at his
post of duty and doing his duty viii

him 1 have found him honest ard up
right in all things The feeling that
Pratt had towards Eslinger was well
known to the men on the force, and a,
frequent subject of talk among them.
many of them siding with EslingeT and
q few with the chief, which caused
dissension among the men and discOrd
in the department. The feeling that
Pratt displayed toward Eslinger was
not warranted by any action of his

AN UNJUST AND UNWARRANTED
ACT

That when Pratt suspended EsIinger
from the force it was most unjust
and unWarrdnted act. but perfectly in
line with the threats he had made be-
fore The facts are that there was a
circus in town and the orders were
that the sergeant and the men ON the
night shift viz. that shift going on at
II p. m and off at a. m. should re-
port in such a case at headquarters at
p. m. instead of II p. M, to do what
might be required OF them. The night
in question Eslfnger. who was sergeant,
reported at the hall with his men at
p. m. and found that neither Pratt
nor / were at the hall. and Eshnger.
leaving his men at the hail. came to
the circus ground. where he was in
formed 1 was, and where Pratt also
was, and asked both Pratt and I IL
there was anything to do. and both
said. mo: better go and let your men
go TO bed" Eslinger then went 10 the
hall and released his men, but stayed
there himself until IL p. M, when he
went on duty. The next afternoon
Pratt discharged Eslinger from the
force In my Judgment in the matter
Eshnger acted right in what he did.
Certainly there was nothing in that to
warrant a discharge.
