SECTION GUARDS, city police officials appointed by two to the sections created by the reform of 1867. One section guard controlled city guards, the other was responsible for preventing crimes. Section guards were subordinated to district police officers; they were armed with sables and revolvers. The position of a section guard was abolished after February 1917.
