lasseS. The revenue agent, Mr.. Lewis, has
discovered that large number of wealthy
capitalists have invested money in the man
ufacture of illicit whisky. owing to the
vast profits arising from the business, they
have employed pOrties to act as the nomi-
nal proprietors Of their establishments, in
order to shield themselves from the conse-
quences Of prosecution for defrauding the
revenue.
