warrant for selling whisky, and on trial last
Tuesday before Justice c. C. VIM, the
case was discontinued and Crawford was
discharged. In about an hour afterwards,
United States Deputy Marshal Manning re-
turned from the country, and arrested
Crawford on the same charge He was
brought before Commissioner Earle and the
evidence was positive and strong as to his
guilt. One witness swore that he had bought
whisky from Crawford frequently and the
money was paid on the spot. Commission
err Earle committed him and Crawford was
carried to Atlanta Wednesday morning
We understand Crawford says, since his
committal, that he has sold at least fifty gal
Ions at retail since the prohibition law went
into operation. He is gone up for a spell
now, and will lose more than he has ever
gained in profits by his willful defiance of
the law. BY the time the United States
Courts are through with him, the Grand
Jury OF November Term of Cobb Superior
Court will have an indictment ready for the
oherlH to take hlm into custody.
