II. Thomas and w. l.. Littleton, of
Oconee, made quite a haul OF Illicit
liquor in the JocaSSce section last
Sunday afternoon about 3 o'clock
One of those little sparrow birds had
been conversing with the officers for
some time about matters liquid and
sections mountainous, and as a re-
suit the officers found themselves
vending their way Jocasseeward
early Sunday morning. They finally
found the place where a still had
been in operation, but the place that
once knew the copper still knew it
no more. for the stillcrs had evident
~ gotten wind OF officers coming, and
the still had been removed from the
plant when they arrived The Off
Gers destroyed some - bushels of
meal mash and about 500 gallons Of
beer ready for a Monday run" They
were disappointed in not getting the
copper still and began nosing around
for traces Of it. These they found
later along a trail through the
woods, where droppings OF mash
were discovered. They did not locate
the copper, however but in a "sink
hole they found 40 gallons Of the
finished still product--corn "licker."
1t was in jugs, sizes ranging through
the scale Of big, medium and small.
There was no way Of getting the
40 gallons OF 40-rod" out to their
automobile, so they proceeded to
have a genuine Carrie Nation liQuOr
smashing. Jugs were smashed to
smithercens and the liquor rolled
down the hillside. Then the officers
left. The plant was located about a
mile from the Whitewater (Jocassee)
Inn, on the opposite side Of the river.
No arrests were made, hut the Off
GERS say they know heap more than
they are giving out for publication.
And thereby hangs a tale that may Or
may never be told.
