CHIEF ECAN'S NERVE
Cot the Best of "His Satanic nsjsssy"
 in a Dream.

Since George NJ. Egan retired from the head of the police department a number of incidents have been cited to show his personal bravery, but the one that proves this best of all appears to have been overlooked. When George Egan was young man, living with his mother, he had an experience which would have driven a timid man crazy, but it didn't cost him a thought. One fine afternoon, while reclining on the bed reading book on predestination, he put mark in the page, placed the volume beside him, and then putting his hands back of his head he commenced to soIIloquize on the future of man in the world be- yond the grave. He had practically made up his mind that there is no hereafter. when no less foeman than his satanic majesty jumped on top of him and grasping him firmly by the arms, shook his head in his face in a threatening attitude. Egan eyed the strange visitor all over, taking partic- ular notice Of the cloven feet and stout horns, and after satisfying himself that he was face to face with the dev- Il, instead of fainting as an ordinary mortal would have done, he addressed him in an undertone, requesting him to get off of him. This WAS answered by another vicious toss of the head. Then the request was repeated in the same tone with the same result Find ing that pacific measures availed naugtIt Egan yelled Get off, with all his might, at the same time making an effort to rise from the pillow. This had the desired effect When he look ed about he was alone and the next sound he heard was the voice of his mother calling to him to know what was the matter. He assured her that he was all right and then he com menced to reason 1t out with himself as to whether this was a real occur renee or had he been dreaming, with the result that he concluded he had not been sleeping and that he had grappled with and worsted the king pin of the internal region. The man who did this and lived after 1t must be something of wonder, and nobody should be surprised to hear that when he wanted to talk he could make hu- man beings get around in double quick time. One would think that such an experience would have both cred him all his life and that the mere mention, of the devil would make him jump, but it had no such effect upon George NJ. Egan. As matter of fact he gave it but passing thought. The chief never knew such thing as fear and hadn't the remotest idea of the power of his lungs when he taxed them to their full capacity. which 1t Is quite likely he did in that famous en- counter at Branford years ago.
