CAPT DALY FILES APPEAL TO COMMISSIONERS
Captain John C. Daley’s counsel appealed the police retirement board ruling yesterday asking for a hearing before the commissioners. The appeal argues lack of board jurisdiction denial of witness access and the right to examine members, and claims the board could not retire him as he was not an applicant. The brief cites errors, asserts insufficient proof of incapacity, and claims premature proceedings. Also noted is a probate verdict upholding Alfred S. Gillett’s will leaving most of about 400000 to widow Ella Gratz Gillett, with a two hour jury deliberation after a lengthy trial.
