                               IN TRIBUTE

                                 ______
                                 

                               speech of

                          HON. ROBERT A. BRADY

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 28, 1998

  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to echo all the 
remarks made by my colleagues. My father was a police officer and I 
know how our family felt every time he went to work protecting the 
people under his jurisdiction. I can only imagine what the families of 
Officer Jacob J. Chestnut and Special Agent John M. Gibson are going 
through right now, the emptiness, the pain and the sorrow.
  I can only hope that the bravery and the distinguished act of courage 
by these two outstanding police officers--and the more than appropriate 
tribute being paid to them will ease just a little of their pain and 
make the days pass a little easier for the Chestnut and Gibson 
families.
