Most of the 173,000 people who wait into the 910th of the square mile between Fifth Avenue and the East River But we didn't know if you asked them that they lived or worked in the twenty-first.

What do they know about it? The majority of their homes, their persons, and their property is the job of the men of the twenty-first precinct. The twenty-first one hundred and sixty patrolman, eleven sergeants, and four old tenants of whom I am the boss.

My name is Connelly, Frank Connelly. I am Captain and Command of the twenty-first. I was working my night tour, four pm to eight am. At 10 o'clock after having been on patrol of the precinct for three hours in sector car number three, I returned to the station house where Lieutenant Snyder was desk officer and Sergeant King was on telephone switchboard duties.

As I walked from the front door toward the desk to sign the blalers, I saw Lieutenant commanding officer of the Twenty-First Detective Squad and another man come out of the back room. Captain? Yes? You got a minute, Captain?

Yes, sir, man. This is Detective Kagan of them and Hatton where Thomas I'd call him. Kagan, please, please, sir. Oh, what have we got, man? What if we're at the water on his abton, aren't you?
