Cambridge Men Arrests in Skin Loot Case
Cambridge residents were arrested after a theft ring spilled from a prior discharge of women. Mitel, son of Sylvester Mitchell, allegedly sold two bundles of hides to N. P. Pord for 44 dollars and 60 dollars, with a third bundle taken to Millville. Detectives tied the cases to a broader scheme involving 180 stolen skins valued at about 200 dollars. Mitchell’s father came to the city as the case widened, with more suspects bound over for court after hearings before Alderman Lids.
