: Jarvis Has Fine ~ Record During Lon " Term in Bowmanvi e Will Sever Connection With Town's Public Life on Many Police Departments in Canada and United of Bowmanville, one of the and most esteemed officials blic meeting of the town council was announced that the resigna- tion of Chief Jarvis had been ac cepted which office of chief was to e relinquished on March 1, 1928, Chief Jarvis was born on May 16, 1457, and during his active life has ehd many {tions in connection witl) the police departments of Can: ada and in one instance almost the States, This latter fact arose the March 1 -- Has Served in | Ji take over the duties here. Just as he ¢ommenced work in Bowmanville and was learning facts of importance about the town from the chief then in charge, Thomas T. Coleman, the latter died. This left the new chief with many duties on his hands as well as mak- ing new acquaintances without any aid, He soon managed to do this however, and is known allover the vicinity of Oshawa and Bowmanville as well as in Toronto where he first met with heavy police experience, and also throughout the Dominion where he has had occasion to work with other guardians of the peace.

The chief of police came to this town on October 29, 1889, and has spent the most of his life, a perind | of 39 years, in this town. Not only was he chief constable but tax-col- lector for 14 years, poll-tax collector, sanitary inspector, truant officer, school attendance officer and high constable for the United Counties of Durham and Northumberland, He has displayed the same ability in the handling of such of these offices as he has shown in the carrying out of the enforcement of the law, the best obtainable, All these duties he has managed to run from the little office in the south-west corner of the town hall, rightly called the Department of Police, Referring to a case which required the keenest senses of observation, Richard Jarvis stated: "Some years ago, there were =a series of circulars sent from the prison in the United States, about €0 miles out of Chicago which announe- ed the fact that two "lifers" had es caped the guards. Photos were sent in connection with the circulars and the case, here. One day as I was leaving the post-office about nine o'- clock in the morning, I noticed a man looking at me from the corner, and what to my amazement when I recognized the features. He hastily turned away when he saw that I was regarding him, and made for a local hotel. After making sure of my "catch" I went to the hotel and with the aid of the proprietor found the two in a room together. It was af- terwards found out that the two men were working nightsat a plant in town as expert mechanics and sleep 'ng during the daytime, I was des t'ned to take them back to the prison 'n the U.8. and except for a few in- "dents on the way, the men were gain lodged back from where they ad but a few weeks before escaped." Mr. Jarvis 8 not in the mond 'or talking when interviewed, and merallyhas litlte to say regarding | himself, but the fact that he is a friend of everyone in the town and | for many places out of the town suf- fices enourh, During the time of his habitation | here, Mr. Jarvis has seen many changes. The old "Upper Canada Furniture Fac®ry" has long disap peared. It was stated that more than 350 were employed there; the Organ Factory has decreased in the number of employees, the highest number over being employed being 400 men, But since then, the chief remarks, the Rubber Plant has come and tak- en the places of those industries which modernisf® and present day in- dustry bos done away with, Since first coming to Bowmanville, the chief has worked with five night ! sergeants, John Allin, Joseph Flei- cher, Henry Metcalf, Richard Clark, William Adams and Walter Hall, the present night man. There have also been three magistrates in office dur- ing the time of@Chief Jarvis. They are George Haines, Willlam M. Hor- sey and the present magistrate, W. F. Ward. The chief has had many occasions to work in conjunction with other members of different forces. The provincial constables and espee- fally the members of the Investiga- tion Department of the C.P.R. are in touch with him at all times. Of special mention was the "companion- ship" of the late R. G. Chamberlain, chief of the above named department, with whom the chief here was an "olderony." The veteran John Lyle, town clerk for "many a year" is another of the former associates who always has a good word for the chief. It seems that the chief had his share of murder cases in and around this section of the country besides a beneficial share of the more quieter ones. More than one desperate erim- inal has taken a shot at the chief with no serious results other than ro leave small wounds. As cited by friends and known by all, the present chief had great re- spect for the older ones, and gave ofhissplendid advice to the younger often without parents knowledge. He sought to decrease the amount of crime, both in the younger and older people, by catching and breaking plans before they developed, and a talk by Chief Jarvis in his own way, meant more to the youngsters of Bowmanville than by severe ap prehending after a thing was done. The Jarvis family all seem to have inclinations for the criminal inves tigation departments. One son, of Mr. Jarvis, James Jarvis, is at pres ent on the office staff of the Toronto Police having started as a patrol man 28 years ago. He worked since his first association with the force in the detective department, the mounted police and the motorcycle squad. A grandson, Fred R. Jarvis, is on mounted polile duty in the Can- adian North-West. A brother to the chief now deceased, was on the force for four years when he took the pos- ition of guard at Central Prison, but was killed in an accident. Another brother, James Jarvis, is at present CANADIAN ROCKIES W.
