Isaac Kadetsky (b. 1879) was a trouble maker....BIG TIME!

I have found 2 fascinating articles with accounts of Isaac Kadetsky's troublemaking that included stealing a gun at 8 years old and going on a trip with a friend at 12 years old. Isaac Kadetsky was the firstborn son of Abraham Joseph Kadetsky and Celia (Shifra) Kaufman of Boston, MA. (For more genealogical info on his family see post http://kadetskyfamilyhistory.blogspot.com/2009/12/1879-abraham-joseph-kadetsky-and-family.html )

Free newspaper searches.
The library of Congress has put together a digital library of newspapers from across the country from 1836-1922. The project is called "Chronicling America" (http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/)

From their website:
Search America's historic newspaper pages from 1836-1922 or use the U.S. Newspaper Directory to find information about American newspapers published between 1690-present. Chronicling America is sponsored jointly by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Library of Congress.
Other free newspaper search engines are the google newspaper archive available here: http://news.google.com/newspapers

Another resource is the Fulton old NY newspaper archive found here: http://fultonhistory.com/Fulton.html
Let me know if you have other newspaper archive resources online.
Here is the article from the (NY) Sun, December 11, 1888. (The story was covered by a newspaper in Omaha as well.)

 

A few years later his shenanigans made headlines again in "The SUN" December 16, 1892:

Did his descendants know that he was a troublemaker?
