Fleming Jackson Adjudged Guilty. . . Bound Over to the November Term of Granville Superior Court

Fleming Jackson, a farmer in Brassfield township, charged with manufacturing liquor, was arraigned before Justice J.J. Medford last Saturday. He was adjudged guilty and placed under a $500 bond and cited to appear at the November term of court.

Jackson’s two little boys, aged 6 and 9 years of age, were caught in the act of carrying fire wood to the still which their father was operating. The fate of these children rests in the hands of D.C. Hunt, judge of the Juvenile Court, and J.E. Jackson, county welfare officer.
