William "Kaiser" Gaiffe was the chief of police in Bluffton in the 1960s. He was also the cemetery sexton, in charge of the village crew and held several other unofficial village posts, to numerous to mention. This classic photo of a small town police chief was probably taken by Charles Hilty. We welcome "Gaiffe" stories from any viewers.
