Ed was featured in the 1927 Minnesota Game Warden Magazine. He and his wife, Lottie (Dahl) had received a load of furs and the game wardens were hot on their trail. A running gun battle ensued, but Ed was an excellent driver and soon got far enough ahead that he and Lottie were out of sight of the cops. Stopping on a bridge, Lottie, along with the furs and guns, floated down river. Ed took off again, stopping down the road a ways. When the game wardens caught up with him - but the evidence was gone. Ed's only response to game warden's questions was a question of his own, "Gotta drink?"
