The story you are referring to is "The Ransom of Red Chief" by O. Henry. It is a humorous tale about two kidnappers who end up wanting to pay a ransom to return the mischievous and troublesome boy they kidnapped.
Charles Lindbergh Jr. was kidnapped in 1932 by a man named Bruno Hauptmann, who was seeking ransom money. Hauptmann was ultimately captured, tried, and convicted of the crime, leading to his execution in 1936. Lindbergh's fame and wealth made him a target for the crime.
