RoBs vINYARD. CHAsEs OWNER
Andrew Lewis, Colored, Arrested and
Held for Court, Charge of Z. GourIey

Not only was the vineyard of FL
wood Gourley, on the Bay Road south
east Of Dover robbed of large num-
Der Of grapes, but the alleged robber
also chased Mr.. Gourley to his home
when he inte1fered with the robbery
according to testimony that was
brought out before Magistrate w. D.
Burton, Thursday, when Andrew Lew
is, negro, was held under $4,000 bail
on a charge of stealing the grapes.
It was one of the most daring rob
berries ever executed in this county.
The thief is said to have used an au-
tomobile truck to haul the grapes
away. He is alleged to have picked
and stolen about 400 baskets of the
grapes. Mr.. Gourley had been miss
ing grapes for several days and We'd
nesday night decided to stay up and
keep watch. 1t was early Thursday
morning when he heard someone in
the vineyard picking grapes. Mr..
Gourley taking his shot gun and ac-
companied by a small boy went out
to the vineyard and fired several
times in the direction of the truck.
The man evidently dropped to the
ground for safety when the shooting
started. After Mr.. Gourley had fired
his last shell the man whom he testi
fed was Lewis, suddenly appeared and
chased him and the boy to the house.
When the police, who were summoned
investigated, it is alleged they found
Lewis near the Gourley home with
a double barrel shot gun and, it is
thought he was waiting for Mr.. Gour
ley to come out of his house to shoot
him. The officers are now searching
for the automobile truck in which the
grapes are said to have been taken
aWaY.

WILL SMYRNA LOSE CREAMERY
Break Down in Plant Results in Shift
to the Clayton eamery-Smyrna
Dairymen Feel 1t Hardship

Owing to a breakdown in the
Smyrna Creamery plant owned by
Scott & Powell, all work has sus-
pended and farmers and dairymen
have been ordered to haul their milk
to the Clayton creamery which is also
ownd by Scott & Powell, the latter,
it is said, being subsidiary Of the
Philadelphia Diaries Products Co.,
Inc. Harry B. Manlove, who was in
charge of the Smyrna creamery and
all his assistants, have been transfer
red to the Clayton creamery Just
what Scott and Powell will do toward
repairs to the Smyrna creamery or
whether anything will be done, is
question Rumor has it Smyrna plant
may be abandoned This rumor has
stirred farmers and dairymen living
east and north and south of Smyrna
who feel it somewhat of hardship
to drive a mile or mile and half
further to deliver their milk Merch-
ants and business men are taking
cognizance Of it and the Smyrna
Chamber of Commerce may be ap-
pealed to to take the matter under
discussion if it becomes definitely
learned that the old Smyrna creamery
plant will not be repaired and run
again. Recently this plant had the
promise of becoming an important
cheese mandatory when the Dawson
Cheese Company owned and operated
it. The plant was sold and the Scott
and Powell interests took it over.
Smyrna farmers who have been hav-
ing an outlet for their milk supply
here, still want to see the plant in
operation and are not looking with
favor on the extra mile or so drive
to Clayton. They hope some action
will be taken to repair and rehabili-
tate the Smyrna creamery that it
may continue to be a live industry
