A notorious troublemaker, Herman F. Dolly, was taken into custody by Perth Amboy authorities on June 18, 1922, after a string of altercations at a local saloon on Sands Street. Dolly, known for his hot temper and penchant for getting into scrapes, was accused of creating a ruckus at the corner of Madison Avenue and Sands Street, prompting the police to intervene. Eyewitnesses described the scene as chaotic, with Dolly shouting and gesticulating wildly as he clashed with patrons and bartenders alike.
