Who Got the Quails Quaint Tale of Ogden Arrests
Painter C. C. Ogden was arrested in Passaic last Thursday as he tried to board a train to Kansas City. A check for 12.50 on Merwin Bank drawn when funds were missing led to the arrest. A telescope revealed 150 quails, supposedly the birds Ogden was transporting. Sheriff Heard seized the birds. they were to be placed in a local refrigerator but vanished before morning. The affair leaves the question of who retrieved the quails and the supposed bride unresolved.
