WILL RETIRE

Col Sheridan to #Resign Col-
onelcy of Fourth Next
Month.

His Friends Propose to and Are Beam-
ing Him as the Democratic Party’s
Candidate for High Sheriff this

‘ Fall. '

Col. James Sheridan, of the Fourth
regiment, C. N. G., has decided to re-

sign his commission, and the last day"

I of the coming month he will tender his

 

resignation, to take immediate effect.

That day Col. Sheridan will have com?
pleted 30 years of honorable service in
the State militia, and ‘he feels that
with his advancing years, and the de-
tails of his business demanding all his
time, he should enjoy a respite from
military labor.

Col. Sheridan ”first enlisted in the
militia in August, 1868. He became a
private in CO. E'known in those days
as the Goodwin Guards. Since that
time the colonel has served continuous-
ly. He has attained the highest office
within the gift of the regiment and
feels thankful to his men and friends
who proved such valiant. supporters
in days gone by.

His decision to resign his commission

‘ after 30 years of honorable service will

be received with regret by all who
know the colonel and are familiar with
the high military standard he sac
and believes in maintaining.

Apropos of his coming retirement is
the announcement that his friends pro-
pose to start him in the contest as a
candidate of the Democratic partyfor
sheriff of Fairfield county.

Col. Sheridan’s retirement will‘hni
doubtedly result in the advancement of
Lieut. Colonel Hendrie, of Stamford,

who” 1s in every way qualified for the

colonelcy, and a general favorite with
the rank and file of the regiment.
