CHIEF FALVEY REMOVED BY HOLLISTON BOARD BUT REFUSES TO QUIT HIS JOB
Holliston, September 2, 1915 – Albert T. Falvey, for the past few years chief of the Holliston police department, and night watchman in the square, had his head officially chopped off, so far as the watchman portion of his job is concerned, by the board of selectmen Tuesday night.
George H. Moody was appointed to guard the respected citizens of this town as they slumber peacefully during the long hours of the night, succeeding Falvey in this particular field of duty.
The selectmen, it is understood, did a little private gum shoeing Sunday and Monday night, and were horrified to find no guardian of the law on duty during the hours specified for Chief Falvey to be on the job. His removal followed.
As a result of the differences Holliston was guarded last night and will be again this evening, Chief Falvey and Officer Moody both being on the job.
