Durham Deputies Find Still on Easter, April 22, 1924

Easter Nets One Still in Durham. . .Deputies Capture 30-Gallon Still in Durham Township—Luck Not Good

Durham deputies, in their continued war on moonshiners, do not take Easter holidays. Deputy Will Hall Sunday afternoon took at 30-gallon capacity liquor plant in Durham township, west of Durham, about four miles out, not far from the Rigsbee road. The “run” had been made, and there were neither operators or beer found on the site.

While this one still was all the success the deputies had during the week-end, they made three separate and distinct raids on Saturday, all of them being unsuccessful.
