long term of years. In a review of the
situation a Bridgeport paper says:
"Now it seems that Colonel Dob: rty

ably assured of receiving General Bar

of Colonel Doherty to remain in the ser-
vice has to a considerable extent excreta»
ed many of the members of the National
Guard. Therearenota few who refer
tothe cokmcl'a behavior in camp with
more or lav adverse criticism. ’lhere is
no use of denying the fact that there is
considerable feeling on this point. When
the statement, coming direct from Col-
onel ”sherry, was made that he would
resign after the last encampment many
of the officers thought as it was his last
appearance on the field in service it
would be unwise in any way to refer to
his alleged behavior at camp Now they
