Lightning struck all around the town
of Killingly, Friday, when state police
and federal revenue men made the first
raids for illicit stills in Windham coun-
ty but this town escaped an official Wis
itation. One still was taken in a raid
in the town of Thompson, another still in
an advance by the officers on an iso-
| lated farmhouse in the Black Hill Sec
ton of the town of Canterbury. At Cen
trail Village and at Moosup the officers
made seizures of what is coming to be
known as prohibition grape juice and al
so quantity of Jamaica ginger
| The visits of the officers to villages in
the town of Plainfield and the territory in
that vicinity is believed to have been due
| to tips" that came tothem. They
didn't seem to have much difficulty in
walking straight to an illicit still in an
| isolated farmhouse out in the Black Hill
district and locating it without airy de-
lay This still was seized
The officers would like to have in
terviewed one Daniel Blakely, who lives
! out in the Black Hill section, but who
was in Central Village with his car
when the officers started out from his
place, fact that he was aware of, but
they couldn't find him after they had
seized the still, the ownership of which
they were DESTROYS of establishing.
At the home of Frank Shadrick in the
Kennedy City section of Central Village
the officers seized qantity of moon
shine" Shadrick was arrested, brought
before Justice Torrey and fined SO and
costs, the charge being keeping with in
tent to sell.

up a quantity of moonshine was seiz-
ed also about 200 bottles of Jamaica
