Sheriff Willard C. Rector is making good as Sheriff if we may judge by the amount of liquor being captured during his administration. Previously we have reported about 500 gallons captured. Monday morning, bright and early, two negroes driving a brand new Studebaker car were arrested and when finally brought to a stop the amount of 64 gallons of liquor was taken from them, the men locked up and the car held.
Another capture of about 50 gallons was made Wednesday after the above was written.
