ninth precinct. is one of the most widely
known lieutenants in the police depart
ment. Since his appointment on the force
over twenty-five years ago he has been so
active that he has been in the limelight
most of the time, climbing into one of
the biggest positions in the department
and winning the respect and confidence OF
his superiors. From the time he began to
arrest violators of the liquor law through
the period of his career when he won the
title of the Fighting Sergeant to the
present, he has been advancing in the de-
partment. His record in the police depart
ment as fighter of crime is one of which
he may be proud of. He made bitter enc
mics by his activity, and they plotted to
prevent his further interference, but he
has kept to the top of the heap.
