Theesdahl Detained After Disturbance at Stoutenburg Farm
Theesdahl, tenant for Matt McMahon the farmer on the old Stoutenburg place, was taken into custody in Burt Wednesday morning and turned over to the sheriff in Algona. He had recently gained notoriety for a drinking bout that damaged his home while his children were ill, and a quarantine had been in place. During a fumigation visit, he clashed with his wife, injuring her hand, then fled with his oldest boy. An all night pursuit led to Burt and a daytime capture west of town, where he was turned over to the sheriff-montor.
