Ross, Christian K.
THE FATHER'S STORY OF CHARLEY ROSS, THE KIDNAPPED CHILD. From the Home Of His Parents In Germantown.
431 p. Illustrations. 8vo. Very worn publisher's cloth binding. On July 1, 1874 two little boys were abducted in front of their family's mansion. It was the first kidnapping for ransom in the history of th e United States. And it would be the major event of its kind until the Lindbergh baby kidnapping. The boys were named Charley and Walter Ross; they were 4 and 6 years old. The two men who kidnapped th em had given the boys candy on previous occasions. That day, however, the men told the boys to climb into their buggy and promised to buy them firecrackers. The boys boarded and they drove off into th e city. Charley would never be seen again. As they drove farther away, Charley wanted to go home and began to cry. The men stopped in front of a store and gave Walter 25 cents. He entered the store and started choosing firecrackers, while the men drove away with Charley. The boys' father, Christian K. Ross, thought the boys were playing in a neighbor's yard. But soon a neighbor told him that she saw the boys traveling in a buggy. The father began the search for his son that he would continue until his death. He didn't tell his wife at first, who was recovering from an illness in Atlantic City. Two days later, however, she found out when he began advertising in the newspapers for his sons' return. A stranger found Walter and returned him to his father. Walter related the tale. Two days after that, the father received a crude note, saying that Charley would be released for a sum of money. On July 7, came another note demanding $20,000 and instructing the boy's father how to go about paying the kidnappers. The father tried to follow the instructions as best he could but never contacted the kidnappers. Later that year, police were investigating the kidnapping of a Vanderbilt child and found a ransom note in that case that matched closely the one for Charley Ross. They identified the handwriting as fugitive convict William Mosher's. Mosher was killed during a burglary in Brooklyn, but his partner Joseph Douglas identified Mosher as the kidnapper of Charley Ross. Douglas died insisting that only Mosher had known where Charley was being held. Douglas also said that Charley would be returned safely in a few days. He never was, and the father spent $60,000 in his futile search. Imposters came forward in the years afterward claiming to be the missing boy. Each was disproved. Charley's father died in 1897, his mother in 1912. Walter Ross died in 1943. The Ross mansion was torn down in 1926. The Cliveden Presbyterian Church now stands on the site of the kidnapping. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! PA 28

Just Punishments: Federal Guidelines and Public Views Compared
Hawthorne New York: Aldine de Gruyter 1997. Very Good condition in a bright and shiny Near Fine dust jacket. NO chips tears or creases. Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a library discard. NOT a remainder. Only a few pages with margin notes. Occasional yellow highlighting. Publisher's mailer describing the book is laid in. A volume from the publisher's Social Institutions and Social Change series. Tables. 3 appendices. Bibliography. Index. Bound in the original brown cloth stamped in bright gold on the spine. Complete with dust jacket. From the publisher: "The sentencing guidelines written by the U.S. Sentencing Commission for the federal crime courts were designed to lead to uniform the just punishments for convicted criminals. How well did the Commission's judgments about what were just punishments compare to the view of the American public Using data from a 1994 national household survey the authors compare the punishments described by the Commission to those desired by the public. Contrary to the frequency claims of excessive leniency on the part of judges that are often asserted by journalists and shapers of opinions Rossi and Berk find strong correspondence between the median sentences deemed appropriate by the public and the sentences prescribed by the guidelines. Although the authors conclude that the Commission was able to match prescribed punishments closely to the American consensus for most crimes in one category -- drug trafficking offenses -- the guidelines were much harsher in dealing with offenders. The national survey used a factorial survey as its design strategy allowing for analysis of a large variety of federal crimes and variations in the social characteristics of convicted felons. A wealth of detail along with ample graphic and tabular illustrations extends the book's application to issues of consensus and variations in punitiveness by region and socioeconomic characteristics of respondents.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good condition/Near Fine dust jacket. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. xi 244pp. Great Packaging Fast Shipping. Aldine de Gruyter Hardcover
