Three and one half gallons of intoxicating liquors, some of which is said to be a good grade of peach brandy, was confiscated Saturday by officers from the sheriff’s office. The whiskey was found at W.E. Chambley’s house on the Hillsboro road. Chambley was taken into custody and is in the county jail.
Officers state that Chambley has been at liberty under a suspended sentence. He has been reporting at each term of superior court to show good behavior. At the last term of court Chambley was asked to explain why so many vehicles go to his house daily. His attorney said at the time that people wanting water stopped at Chambley’s house.
