Famous Horse Swindle Case in Federal Court
Renewed interest arose Saturday as Deputy U S Marshal Weage arrived in Flagstaff and subpoenaed several locals to testify in Omaha regarding the Smith Bros horse swindle. The case tracks back to 1910 when the outfit bought horse brands, advertised nationwide, and sold horses they did not possess, with bills of sale directing buyers to Flagstaff to claim stock.
