Big Whiskey Still
Captured In Upper
Chowan Last Week
Revenue Officers De
stroy Plant and Ar
rest Three Negroes
Bootlegging in Chowan County was
struck a severe blow Thursday of last
week when revenue officers located
and destroyed a 1,000-gallon capacity
still a short distance off the River
Road in upper Chowan County near
the Gates County line. The still was'
found a short distance from a spot
where a similar outfit was destroyed
about a month and a half ago. Both
plants were capable of manufacturing
at least 1,000 gallons of moonshine
a week.
The still was said by officers to be
very elaborate but not very well con
cealed. When they swooped down on
the still about 2 o’clock in the after
noon three Negroes were making ai
“run” and had already made about
195 gallons, with the prospect of man-,
ing an additional 300 gallons during
the afternoon. There were 19 fer
menting vats of 500 gallon capacity at
the scene, with 6,500 gallons of mash
fermenting to be turned into com
whiskey.
In June revenue officers discovered
and destroyed a similar plant nearby,
which required 30 charges of dynamite
to put it out of commission.
Arrested at Thursday afternoon’s
raid were three Negroes, Willie Over
ton of Belvidere, and Knox Quick
and John A. Holley, who said
their homes were in Portsmouth.
Officers making the raid were Jack
Gaskell, Moses Hawshaw and Law
rence Davis, ATU officers, and A. D.
Baum and B. V. Halstead, ABC offi
cers.

Grissom, with both hurlers developing
streaks of wildness, which contributed
in large part to Grissom’s downfall.
