COOGAN story appearing in "New York Times"
(14 MAY 1871, PAGE ?):


A few days ago a man named COOGAN, residing in Orange, came on a 
visit with his son to a relation of his in Jersey City, named 
COLLINS.  He sneaked home without his boy.  COLLINS gave him money
to follow his father, but when he arrived in Orange he could not
find him.  The poor boy found his way back to Jersey City, but
COLLINS considering himself unable to support him, surrendered him
to the care of the Police authorities yesterday.
