From the History
of the New York Police Department Your Memorialists therefore pray that provision b made by law for the disposal of the
property so remaining in the aid office unclaimed, at the expiration of every six months, and that the proceeds thereof may
be paid into the Treasury, and an established salary, in addition to the existing fees, may be allowed out of the public Treasury
to such Constables and Marshals as the Police Magistrates may select, on account of their vigilance and fidelity, to attend
at the said office, and execute their commands."
