That 1t was a case Of mistaken identity
was the defense put up by Officer c. K.
Metcalf OF the tenth precinct station who
is married, was before the police trial
board yesterday afternoon, to answer
charges of impersonating single man and

sented to her that he was a policeman. She
was positive that the defendant was not
the man whom she had met and had been
to see her. She stated that the statement
made to Capt. Gessford of the police de-
partment about Officer Metcalf was mis-
take and that she instead speaking Of
this man Price, although at the time she
thought that he was the police officer.

and this girl. One in particular was while
the officer was on duty and was testified to
by Sergeant Headley.
Officer Metcalf denied meeting the GIRL
except occasions when she had asked
him to come, thinking he was Price, and
after the charges were preferred to see why

whether he knew man in the navy named

counsel, but an answer was demanded. He
