A Chicago article describes a new line of private detective work focusing on moral supervision rather than criminal detection. It cites cases of monitoring a wealthy merchant’s son, a daughter of a merchant with kleptomania, and the character of young men courting daughters. The piece notes the detectives' role in preventing scandals and even saving reputations, while acknowledging the ethical tensions and payment, and includes experiences with a bank cashier suspected of embezzlement.
The piece humorously portrays former President Hayes as a keen hen detective who tracks a hen’s egg theft by a crafty layabout, then shifts to a legal notice about a sheriff sale in Nevada. The sale lists property tied to a mining company and debt details, including amounts and court references.
