Dunlap and Flinchum Get Two More Stills This Week, June 17, 1925

Officers Get Two More Stills. . . One Outfit Taken Near Sandy Ridge Appeared to be Brand New—Considerable Beer Destroyed

Sheriff J. Frank Dunlap and Prohibition Agent P.L. Flinchum captured two stills the past week, one in the Sandy Ridge section and the other near Hartman.

Considerable beer was destroyed at each place. The still captured at Sandy Ridge was in the furnace, just ready to have fire placed under it, but no one was seen near it. The entire outfit appeared to be brand new, never having been used before. The still taken near Hartman was found hidden in a brush pile.
