Those sioonshine Raids.
~
Mr.. Allie Weaver, Tag, KY, and


Mr.. Allie Weaver, Tag, KY, and
Readers 0 the Courier
IL wish to call your attention ! the
statements that appeared in the two
last issues Of the Courier. In the is
sue before the last was an item to the
effect that the moonshine raiders
found still site and about 10 bushels
Of meal on a farm owned by Allie
Weaver, and that the raiders cut up
some tubs or fermenters.
In the last issue of the Courier Mr..
Weaver brands this statement as
false, and the editor explains that he
received his information from me.
l have no apologies to make for
making the raids or assisting in the
same, but | do say, Mr.. Weaver. that
dld not inform the editor anything
whatever about the raid before the ar-
tlcle was published. But ! will pro-
'eed to tell who made the raid and
ylat was found. On the morning of
IAN. 3 JAS. W. Davis, deputy U. s.
Marshal, Noah Hughes, deputy Sheriff
ana myself made q raid on the farm
# Allie Weaver and this is what we
'ound: A still house 200 steps down
he branch below his residence, with
furnace and a large hole of water.
ihiS sun house was made by setting
lmDer ON end around Il rock house
ma brush against the timber. There
vas nothing between the still house
md his residence to Obstruct the view.
About 100 yards below this. still house
We we found another still site under
cllif with a large hole Of water.
Ihc furnace had freshly burned ashes
under 1t and the hole of water and
branch had sediment of still-slop.
we also found the large box which Mr..
Weaver so emphasizes, and from our
pest Judgment there was about one |
bushel of meal and it looked like itE
nad been wet.
We learned that this bcx had beer
stolen form Mr.. Jim Bays, therefore
we did not destroy it..
Mr.. Weaver admitted that the two
It'll sites were on his land and showed
rs where the line crossed the branch.
which was some 200 yards below the
over still site.
We found and DESTROYED three bip
nrmenters. which were about 300
ards uD the hill from the nearest
till site TO Mr.. Weaver.
Mr. Weaver also states that some
eW days later in the week another
'aid was made, still outfit cut M I
md burned, except what was carried
