Garden Grove Express
July 20, 1893
Garden Grove, Iowa

The depot at this place was broken into Tuesday night by breaking a pane of
glass out of the south windows of the office and reaching through and pulling
out the stops. The burglars got for their pains, 48 pennies and Agent STROHL's
razor. They went through the express packages but got nothing of value. It
is hoped that the thieves will soon be behind the bars and finally learn a
good trade in the pen.
