The motion to squash the third
charge was based on the same legal
phases as in the first case, that of
illegal search
Judge Soper overruled Culp's mo-
lions, however, stating that the de-
PENDANT had practically confessed on
the witness stand and that it was no
longer necessary for him to make a
ruling.
In passing on the illegal search
phase of the question, however,
Judge Soper stated that entrance up
on a mans farm without a warrant
did not constitute illegal search, and
pointed out the Prohibition Agents,
although they may have been on
Culp's farm, were considerable dis
tace from his house when they dis
covered him in possession of three
stills. This constituted enough evil
dence for a legal serch of the house,
the Judge stated.
In the second case Judge SOper
stated that Hawkins may have been
at fault in not arresting Harry
Reeves, the owner and driver of the
beer laden truck, and also the Gus
ice of the Peace" who was found inthe
machine. Culp, however, had con-
fessed ownership of the beer while on
the witness stand, and that itself
made it necessary for the court to
rule in the case, the Judge ruled.
Culp had the clerk note an eXcep-
ton to the judges ruling, and then
proceeded to argue the case to the
jury, dramatically dwelling on the
constitutional rights of the American
citizen, which in his case had been
violated. Before he had gone far,
however, Judge Soper stopped him
and stated that he ruled on the CUES
ton Of whether or not the search of
his premises was legal, he could not
let the defendant argue the question
before the jury. The judge then told
him to stick to the evidence in the
three cases involved, whereupon Culu
replied: "In that case | have moth
ing to say, except to ask the clerk to
note an exception to the ruling"
The case was then given to the
jury and in about an hour, YER
dict Of guilty on all counts in all three
cases was returned.
Culp was Immediately sentenced as
IoIIoWs; six months IN Jail for the
first count in the first case, three
months in jail on the second count, to
run concurrently with the sentence Of
the first count; 81 and costs on the
third count.
In the second case, that of trans
porting home brew, he was sentenced
to three months in jail, this sentence
to begin at the expiration Of the SEN
tence in the first case.
In the third case he was given six
months in jail, to run concurrcntlv
with the first count in the first case,
and three monhs in jail to run cor
currently with the sentence on the sec
ond count in the first case.
Culp then asked on what bond he
would be released if he appealed the
case and he was told S. 600.

SIX CHILDREN SURVIVE.

Friends of Mrs. M. E. McLendon
were grieved to learn of her death,
which occurred at her home near Sas-
ser on Feb. 9th, after prolonged
illness. The entire community OF both

loss in the passing of this excellent
Christian character, as she had lived

young. She was noble wife and a
self-sacrihcing mother. She had the
happy faculty of making every one
feel so much at ease in her presence,
and her sweet smile seemed to bring
"order out of chaos" The world is
made better by her having lived in it,
and the influence of her beautiful quail
tiles will not soon be forgotten. Many
testimonials have been given to her
pure life and much demonstration OF
the high esteem in which she was
held by~a large circle of relatives and
friends in the fact that so many have
wanted to care for the little girl, Sara
Frances, who is only two months old.
Elder r. H. Jennings, who conduct
ed the funeral from Macedonia
church, paid very glowing tribute to
her whose life had looked for the
beautiful in all things, and the family
was made to feel that heaven is near
err. and the words of the song so
beautifully rendered by quartette,
"Have Thy Way, Lord expressed
the sentiment of the entire family, as
they cherish her memory in their
hearts.
The deceased is survived by her
husband and six children-Burtus,
Marvin, Fred, George A., John and
Sara Francis; two grandchildren,
Claudia and Mary McLendon; her
mother and father, Mr.. and Mrs. .,
L. Massey; FIVE brothers, w. W., +.
L. and H. G. Massey of Brentwood,
Roy Massey of Augusta and ]. {.
Massey of Albany; two sister, Mrs.
S. B. Hall of Plains and Mrs. jesse
Chambliss OF Dawson.

from distance were Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Greene and little daughter,
Winifred, Mr.. Joe Strange, Mrs.
Grady Wimbush, OF Ellaville; Mr.. and
Mrs. Lester Coxwell, of Leesburg;
Sheriff and Mrs. Coxwell, of Lees
burg; Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c. Massey and
