60 after bob TODD

Bob Todd, colored, was prof.

sold it at So to $40 a pint to a man
named Davis, the other day, ac-
cording to standards which are
said to prevail among the best
moonshining cpyles, as exempli-
fed in Clay county. Anyway, he
didn't get away with it for long,
for Chief of Police Dcvore and
Patrolman Maupin took Bob in
tow and he was handed $50 and 10
days by Judge Smith in police
court yesterday. Tom Harris,
who was accused of selling a
quart to Davis, also for SIC.
couldn't be identified by Davis,
and was acquitted. 1t was alleg-
ed that Todd had secured his sup
ply from H yden Estlil and Jim
Schooler, but Estill was acquitted
because it was shown that Todd
had been previously convicted
for false swearing. Jim School
er who was alleged to have fur
nished a pint to Todd at So was
released on 500 bond with Judge
II. c. Rice as surety, for his ap-
pearance in circuit court.
