Sometimes Works Trains, 1920 ~

John James McCarthy, 28, arrested in San Diego, California, on March 9, 1920, for vagrancy and “PP.” Since we don’t know what “PP” means, we might assume it’s “public prophecy” or “possession of poodles” or “peeling potatoes.” Anyway, it must not have been too serious since the sentence was dismissed. We can only hope that Mr. McCarthy had a happy life after his brush with the law.
