Ulric Rivard Resigns from Com- pany |—Second Lieutenant Now Commanding Officer. Lieut. Ulric Rivard has resigned his commission with Company L, First in- fantry, C. N. G., and same has been accepted and an honorable discharge, dated Friday and signed by Adjutant General Cole of Hartford, has been | received by him. Lieutenant Rivard jolned Company . Third regiment, C. N. G. 23, 1902, as a private; he then became a corporal and later a sergeant. Oc- tober 3, 1903, the company was chang- ed to Company 1, First regiment, C. N. G, and on July 28, 1906, Sergeant Rivard became second lieutenant, which position he held up to the res- ignation of First Lieutenant Greener and by virtue of the fact that he was commanding officer of the company t the time of his discharge, same gives him a rank of a first lieutenant. The resignation leaves the company without a captain or a first lieuten- at, there being but a second lieuten- ant, P. J. . Sullivan, who is now com- manding officer. It is expected that within a week an order will be rgcei\'ed from the of- fice of the adjutint general calling the memters of the company together for the election of a captain, gnd it is believed that Second Lieutenant Sulli- van will be tendered the nomination. Later the two other vacancies will be filled. This is not the first time that the company has been without lieutenants, as under Capt. Frank P. Fenton, the first lieutenant had a six months’ leave of absence and the sec- ond lieutenant had resigned. Lieutenant Rivard announced sever- al weeks ago that he intended to re- sign not later than December. Lieu- tenant Rivard made a fine appearance an officer and had filled the office creditably and well, J.
