Off the period of twelve months"
\ The contention is that this amend
ment adds penalty and hence takes
such cases from the jurisdiction of
the Quarterly Courts.
The motion for writ is to be heard
before Judge Slack at greensboro on
April the 4th,
~ Whatever happens in these cases
" may be said that County Judge
Fwilson, County Attorney Kirk and
Sheriff Keown are doing their duties,
earnestly endeavoring to enforce the
law, and, in this the County Attorney
IS ably assisted by Commonwealth's
Atterney Claude Smith.
~ Two brothers, Alb and Enos Law
renee, of color. were arrested and
placed in Jail last week charged with
having in their possession whiskey
for sale. Enos later was released on
bond signed by his brother Basil and
w. p. Midkiff.
1T appears that the two negroes
and their brother Carl received from
the express offices at Hartford, Nc
Henry and, Beaver Dam forty-six
Quarts Of whiskey from January the
a11th to March 81 inclusive. Another
package containing eight quarts is

Lawrence. The county officials hav-
ing received information Of the unu-
sual amount Of wet goods being ship
ped to Lawrence. questioned the
personal use" proposition and Mr..
J.. e. Williams, the agent. refused
to let the negro have the package.
Alb was placed on trial Monday in
Judge Wilson's court before jury.
He admits receiving the various
packages, containing from 6 to s
quarts each, but contended the Ii
quor was bought for personal use
and carried to his home north of
Hartford. Said some members of
the family had the grip" and the
flicker" went mighty quick.
When asked to his occupation he
said he had not been doing anything
for some time.
The undelivered package was
brought into court as evidence and
shows 1t was shipped from A. B.
Menser, at greensboro, Ky.
The trial resulted in hung jury
five for conviction and one for ac-
quittal.l
Enos was also tried and two of the
jury accepted the personal use"
theory while four were for convic-
ton.
The county officials are earnestly
endeavoring to suppress the Illicit
sale of liquors and they should have
the hearty cooperation Of all law
aviding citizens.
