This product having been shipped in interstate commerce and remaining 
unsold and in the original packages, was at the time of examination found to 
be infested with maggots.
On August 11 and August 12, 1938, the United States attorney for the 
Eastern District of Pennsylvania, acting upon reports by the Secretary of 
Agriculture, filed in the district court libels praying seizure and condemnation 
of 66 crates of huckleberries at Philadelphia, Pa.; alleging that the article had 
been shipped on or about July 28, 1938, by Frank A. Reynolds from Whiting, 
N. J.; and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
Adulteration was alleged in that the article consisted in whole or in part 
of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid vegetable substance.
On November 5,1938, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemnation 
were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
