Captain George F. Keenan, the 
commanding officer of Massachusetts 
Ambulance Company, No. 1, well 
known at Beverly Farms, has applied 
for retirement from the National 
Guard. Captain Keenan, who is a 
popular Boston surgeon, has been in 
the State militia for 20 years, and has 
served in all grades of the militia up 
to. his present rank. . He was for 
years in the Ninth Regiment, and 
served with the organization in the 
Spanish-American war. When Presi- 
dent Wilson called for troops to go 
to the Mexican border, Captain Kee- 
nan’s command was the first National 
Guard unit to arrive in the El Paso 
district, and the first of the militia 
ciganizations from the East to reach

the border. From the time that the 
10th army division was formed un- 
tii he left the border, Captain Keenan 
was the director of ambulance com- 
panies of the division. It is believed 
that he will be retired with the rank 
of major. Captain Keenan married 
Miss Gertrude Connolly of Beverly 
Farms. 
Miss Maud Eddy of High st. is

Patrolman Michael H. Wittenhagen, 
who has been doing duty at Pride’s 
Crossing and Beverly Farms a num- 
ber of years past and who was recent- 
ly suspended by the mayor following 
charges brought by the acting head of 
the police department covering neglect 
ef duty and other items, will not ap- 
ply for a hearing on the suspension. 
When the charges were laid before 
the mayor he took the matter up with 
bis aldermen and an indefinite sus- 
pension order was issued. Under the 
civil service rules the patrolman had 
ten days in which to make application 
for a hearing, but after interviews 
with several of the aldermen Patrol- 
nian Wittenhagen decided not to press 
his application for a hearing. This 
is taken in police department circles 
to mean that the patrolman’s connec- 
tion with the Beverly police force is 
over and the officer will probably be 
asked to turn in his gun, his- badge 
and other city property. Patrolman 
Wittenhagen is one of the best known 
cfficers on the force and in police de- 
partment circles it is said that this is 
the first instance of a patrolman fin- 
ishing his work in the department 
following a suspension. He was sus- 
pended on charge of being found 
asleep at the Beverly Farms Police 
station at a time when he should have 
been on duty.
