    • "Chief of police Frank L White has in his possession a Colt revolver which he purchased from Frank J Wyman immediately after the celebrated bank robbery at this place. Mr. Wyman used it in his pursuit of the robbers, and considerable value is attached to the pistol as a relic. Mr. White also has a belt which goes with the pistol, and other accoutrements."

    • Drayman, Frank White, the chief of police, has bought the team and dreay from A. Brown and will resign his office. We regret that the city is to lose the services of so reliable and conscientious a public servant. Mr. White made an excellent officer, and while attending fully to the discharge of his rather thankless duties, he refrained from that meddlesome interference with private concerns too often characteristic of those who are given any considerable authority. If he attends as carefully to his own business as he did to that in which the city employed him, there is little doubt that he will make more money in it and get more credit for it.
