Lost Registered Letters Recovered From Rail Car Yard
Five registered letters from Schuyler disappeared on The Overland Limited No 2 on Friday November 5. The pouch catcher failed to catch the pouch and the letters were scattered along the track. The package was later found undamaged resting on the trucks under the dining car, blown or thrown when the pouch was shed. Post Office Inspector L A Thompson investigated starting in Council Bluffs. The incident highlights that disappearance of registered mail does not always mean robbery.
