See here" said the chairman to the
policeman on duty, suppose you go
around TO the station house and see if
you can't dig us up another lamp and
few humps of coal"
The policeman shuffled off, and in
about half an hour returned, stood be-
fore the chairman, and with a military
salute addressed him as follows
Mr.. Chairman, after delivering your
message and receiving a reprimand
from the sergeant at the desk, 1 wish
TO inform you that I am sent here in
the capacity of g police officer to pre-
serve the peace, and not TO act as a
janitor, or to fill lamps. carry coal,
build fires. wash windows or carry mes
sages.
