MINING GIVING WAY
TO MOONSHINING
IN COUNTY

Chief deputy sheriff Ross Phil
lips reports that moonshining is
picking up in Dickinson County.
Furthermore, he thinks that
white mule will really begin to
roll if the truck mines stay idle.
Last week, deputies Phillips,
NeWberry, Hammonds and STAN
ley destroyed d complete outfit
on Brushy Ridge and captured IS
gallons of peach brandy, two men,
a handsaw and a cross cut saw.
The still was in operation when
the officers made the raid, and
two men fleeing from the place
ran into the waiting arms of John
Hammonds The men, Hite Griz-
zle and Frank Fraley, were
brought to jail and later gave
bond. On the same trip, and near
the moonshining outfit, one Al
bert Williams was found with
two squirrels he had bagged. His
20-gauge shotgun was confiscat-
ed.
A day later, officers found five
gallons of white whiskey in the
woods near a home on Caney
Ridge, and a few moments later,
arrested two men, each of whom
had a small supply of drinking
liquor.
The next day after that, the
deputies went into the mountains
near Osborne Gap, hoping to find
some one on whom they could
call to stand and deliver. Luck
did not hold. All they found was
"a luckless citizen trying to avoid
some papers his wife had taken
for him
