KNOW A PACKAGE BEFORE
DELIVERY
Business Man at MarshalltOwn
Didn't; Fined

Marshalltown, Iowa-Being a
"good fellow" and willing to accom-
modate a friend, ]. w. Edenburn,
vice president and secretary of the
Marshall Oil company of this city,
got himself into trouble with the
federal game laws.
Some time ago Edenburn was ask
ed by friend in Colorado to deliver
to a local tannery a package. He
did so, not knowing its contents.
They proved to be two fine beaver
pelts.
The federal law makes it the
duty of furriers to report its re-
ceipts of hides and furs received.
When the report was made to the
government it showed the two pelts
delivered by Edenburn. A federal
game warden was sent to investigate
and arrested Edenburn on a charge
of having in his possession out of
season two beaver pelts.
In Municipal court Edenburn was
fined SO for each pelt, but the fine
was RENTED because of the technical
rather than wilful violation.
