Mysterious Monday Morning Mystery

Screenshot 2023-12-17 at 9.08.13 PMI stumbled on this small article on Page 4 of the  St. Louis Globe-Democrat from July 18, 1869. Too bad there was no photo.

Where did the turtle come from? 

And please, no turtle dove jokes, even if it is that time of year.

  • This might be a clue: J.A. Scholten (?typo in the article) was a prominent photographer in St. Louis….
