Bunco Swindle By Woman Nets $500 In Confederate Money
Mary Gobella of 244 Bond Street Brooklyn was duped out of $500 by a man claiming to be Joe, a brother of the swindler. The promise of marriage prompted the crime, and police Commissioner Collins pursued the defendants as details emerged of the frugal banker-like victim and the elaborate ruse involving Confederate money. The plot unraveled after Mary reported the loss and the men behind the scheme were tracked through hotel and street dealings in New York and Brooklyn.
