Richmond, Va., Dec. 17—Prohibition enforcement officers swept down on a 50-gallon still in Wise county and arrested two Baptist ministers, Floyd Cantrell and Medford Lane, on charges of operating it according to a report filed at prohibition enforcement headquarters here today.
One of the men is said to have been engaged in writing a sermon when the officers arrived.
Both gave bond pending a hearing in court.
