Verdict in Old Nick Case.
Greensboro Dispatch. Not. 28th.
The jury in the case of tbe
United States Government against
Glenn Williams and J. J. Kennedy,
known as tbe proprietors of tbe
Old Nick Distilling Companv
brought in a vedict at 11:30 o'clock
this morning of guilty.
Thus enas one ot tbe most
memorable trials of Its kind ever
conducted in tbe courts of North
Carolina. Every inch of ground
has been stubbornly fought aud
tne State's best legal-talent ap
peared for tbe defense. Of the
fifteen original counts, Judge
Boyd instructed the jury to pass
upon rut five.
The Old Nick Company is
corporation of which N. Glenn
Williams is president, and a large
part ot tbe stock is owned bv
parties .from Baltimore and New
York. The property is probably
worth 8100,000, and the verdict of
the jury practically means its con
fiscation.
Mr. Williams, Mr. Kennedy and
the otherjdefendants are, however,
not individually anected. in a
word, the jury's verdict means
mat Mr. vv imams win suiter no
individual penalty, he will be
practically reduced to bankruptcy.
Judge Boyd assessed tbe fine in
tbe case at 85,000, to which is
added $12,000 in costs. The trial
has been'long and tedious, 207
witnesses having been examined.
The defence will file a bill of ex-ceptions.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to
learn tbat there is at least one dreaded di
sease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's ca
tarrh Cure is tne only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly up
on the biood and mucous surfaces of the sys
tem; thereby destroying the foundation of
the disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to core. Send for list of
testimonials. Addr-ss,
