Officers Seize 75-Gallon Still in Fishing Creek Township, Dec. 25, 1923

Moonshiners in Fishing Creek. . . Officers Capture 75 Gallon Capacity Still

Constable E.N. Bragg and Deputy J.E. Newton invaded Fishing Creek Township last Saturday and returned with a 75-gallon capacity still. The officers are of the opinion that this is the still that has been terrorizing the good people in the southeastern part of the county for some time. The officers have an inkling that it was operated by colored men.
