Capt. Orrin j. Dickey of Co. F, Third
Maine Infantry of this city, on account
/ of illness and business affairs has RESIGNED
his command to take effect with this
week and his resignation has been accent
ed by the Adiutant General. Lieut.. Ross
l. Hammons has been placed in command
until such time as successor to Capt,
Dickey is selected. His resignation is a
distinct loss to the company, for he has
been a tlreless worker in its interests
When the Natio nal Guard was organized
he was prominently mentioned as can
d,date for Major of the Third Battalion,
but preferred to become the captain of
the local company. Capt. Dickey recruit
ed the company during the darkest days
of he war in the winter of 1918. His
record of attendance mas been perfect,
never having missed a drill during the
eighteen months of the company's exist
ence and his administration is considered
among the best of the National Guard of
Maine. General regret has been expressed
at his resignation, not only among the men
OF the company, but among citizens gen.
orally, who have felt that he has main
tanned high standard and has been an
lndefatigabie worker, even to the neglect
of his own business.
