parents near Springdale where he
placed the girl under arrest and turn
ed her over to the Lewis county Off
Ger.
Constable Frye returned to Mays
Vile Friday morning with another
warrant charging the girls mother,
Mrs. Anna Soister, with willful mur-
der. The second warrant was based
upon information given the officials of
Lewis county by Mrs. Sweet at ques-
tioning held at vanceburg Thursday
night.
The Lewis county ofiicer says Mrs.
Sweet told the whole story. She is
said to have told that the baby was
born to her In November last, before
she was married to Dewey Sweet. her
present husband. There was much
trouble at her parents home over the
birth Of the child, according to the
story. She is said to have told officers
that the baby was very bright little
fellow but that her mother laid the
babe on the rough floor and giving II
no attention permitted It to die. Mrs.
Sweet said she knew nothing about
the child's body being placed In the
we'll where It was found. The mother
Of the child married Dewey Sweet
some time after the death and disap-
pearance of the baby. she is said to
have told the Lewis county officials
that her parents greatly objected to
her marriage to Sweet and forbid her
to keep company with him.
When the mother Of the girl. Mrs.
Soister. was arrested Friday morning
by Sheriff Devore and turned over to
the Lewis county officer to be return
ed to vanceburg, she denied any
knowledge of the affair in any way
and said that she was the victim Of
enemies in the neighborhood. She was
not informed Of the confession made
by her daughter and said that nothing
as was recited by the officers ever oc-
CURED In her home. Mrs. Soister Is
likewise charged in a warrant in Mag
istrate's court with willful murder and
great interest will be taken in the pro-
ceedings Of this case in which daugh-

98.GAllON STILL
CAPTURED THURSDAY
NIGHT BY OFFICERS
Largest Still Yet Taken in Mason
County Is Captured In Orangeburg
NeighbOrhood BY Captain Ort
and Sherifis.

Captain Harry A. Ort, Federal Pro-
hibition Enforcement officer, Sheriff
c. M. Devore and Deputy Sheriff c. P.
Rasp, Thursday night captured nine
ty-eight-gallon moonshine still and all
its equipment in an automobile on the
Mt. Carmel pike near the North Fork
bridge Just above Orangeburg. The
still was captured at about II o'clock
and brought to Maysville. 1t was de-
stroyed at the court house before a
large audience Friday morning.
Officers had information of the op-
GRAFTON Of this still in the North Fork
neighborhood for the past three or
four months and on two occasions
they have made attempts to locate 1t
but both were unsuccessful On both
occasions the moonshiners had left
trace Of their having been in the
neighborhood but the still had been
moved to new hiding place.
Thursday night the three officers hid
themselves near the gate to the old
Bramel farm between Orangeburg and
Mt. Gilead and saw three men go into
the farm. At about II o'colck an auto
mobile came out of the farm and soon
after It reached the pike, the officers
surrounded 1t. Three men who gave
their names as Kelly Hall, James
Arthur and Omar Hensley were in the
machine, which was a Ford, and in the
back seat was found the large still and
it's various parts, all Of which are cop
per. The tank or boiler measures two
feet and four inches in diameter and
is three feet high, having contents of
P9S gallon, by far the largest ever taken
in Mason county. In the bottom Of the
machine was found a .32-caliber Colts
automatic revolver and a quart of
moonshine whisky.
The officers have learned that the
Ford automobile being used by the
men, all of whom are said to be from
Lewis county, was the property of a
Mr.. Bramel, who lives at the farm
from which tho outfit was being
moved.
The officers are Of the opinion that
the outfit was being moved to Lewis
county and that It had been operated
in this immediate neighborhood for
several months. They think that much
Of the moonshine liquor sold in Mays
Vile was manufactured in this still.
Others besides the mon arrested are
thought to be interested in the outfit
and the officials expect to go into the
case very thoroughly and bring to
court all those implicated in tho own
ership and operation of the outfit and
the sale Of Its product.

PROMINENT FARMER
IS FOUND DEAD IN
HIS HARVEST FIELD
Brown County Farmer, Prominent In
His Section, Is Found Dead in
Field-Cause Of Sudden
Death Unknown.

Henry Miller an aged farmer living
in the Red Oak neighborhood, Brown
county was found dead in the harvest
field at his home Monday morning.
The cause Of his death is unknown,
but it is thought to have been due to
heart trouble. He had been in his US
ual good health, and after a hearty
breakfast left for the days work. A
few hours later his body was found in
a nearby wheat field.
Mr.. Miller was born and reared in
the Bullskin neighborhood, below Hig-
|ginsport, and lived there until about a
year ago when he moved to Red Oak.
He is survived by his wife and six
children.
A large number of relatives Of the
deceased live "a Brown county, among
whom is M. Albert Schuler, of
Georgetown, who lived at the Miller
Home for many years. Deceased en-
joyed the confidence and respect of all
who knew him. The funeral services
were held Wednesday. Burial in Rus

ter and mother are charged with the
cruel murder, by neglect Of helpless
infant.
officers say they had good outside
information upon which to base their
suspicious which led to the sixteen
year-old girl-wife Of Dewey Sweet but
that the alleged confession of the girl
Thursday evening at Vanceburg final
ly settles the guilt upon the girl and
her mother.
Nothing in this section Of the state
has so greatly stirred the community
as did the finding of the little body
two weeks ago but this development
in the case will have tendency to
bring even a greater shock. The east
ern section of Mason county and the
western section Of Lewis county now
have one of the greatest crimes in the
history of that section with which to
deal.
1t will be remembered that several
months ago another infants body was
found in a creek in the Springdale
neighborhood. This case was given
the very close attention of the Coroner
and Sheriffs for several weeks but
they were never able to unravel it.
With the apparent solution Of the
Lewis case, 1t may be that light will
be shed upon the earlier case and to
this end, local officials have again be-
come very alert in its solution making
very careful Investigations in the CON-
munity.

Baby In Well Mystery Solved
By Two Arrests

Thursday by Sheriff c. NJ. Devore for
Constable W. s. Frye, of Lewis coun-
ty. on the charge OF being the mother
OF the infant whose body was found
on Friday. June 9th. in an old well
on the farm Of Mr.. Ed Sullivan near
Mowers Park. Lewis county. The girl
was taken to vanceburg Thursday
night where she made complete con-
fession charging her mother with the
actual murder OF he infant by neglect
Sheriff Devore and Constable Frye
arrested tho mother. Mrs. Anna Sois-
ter at her home ut Springdale early
Friday morning and she was taken to
vanceburg. The mother denies the ac-
cusation OF her, daughter and says she
knows nothing about tho murdered
baby.
On Friday. June 9th, Mr.. Edward
Sullivan, prominent citizen OF Lewis
county. went on an inspectian trip
onto farm he had recently purchased
In the Mower Park neighborhood. On
his trip over the farm. he uncovered
an old deserted we'll and to his horror
saw what appeared to be small hu-
man body floating on the top Of the
water. Removing the bundle, he found
II to DO the body OF an infant wrap
ped In an old sack with the head and
arms gone but the trunk Of the body
whole. II was decayed however as II
II had been in the water for many
days.
Constable Frye, who lives In the
neighborhood, Immediately took a
keen interest In the case which shook
the entire community and began a
very careful examination throughout
the section. Suspicion fell upon Mrs.
Sweet, who has been married for only
a short time and following this clew
no soon found enough information to
warrant the issuance Of a warrant.
Accordingly the Constable came to
Maysville Thursday afternoon with
warrant charging the girl-wife with
willful murder. Sheriff Devore was
sought and went to home Of the girls
