It was a case of “liquor, liquor every where and not a drop to drink.” On Saturday afternoon Officers Dees, Slack, Grimm and Lambert vis ited the home of Will ^/cMasters on Federal Route 1, about a mile south of Pinebluff. They had heard that whiskey was being sold there. They found the 79-year-old man and his invalid wife of 81 summers at home. McMasters admitted that he had sold some liquor some time ago, but that he had none at the present. The of ficers investigated and found the 110 gallons cleverly concealed about a pcrch of the house. There were loose boards in the porch floor w'hich could be pushed aside and underneath the porch, which was underpinned around the edge, were concealed numerous half-gallon jars of the illegal bever age. Shelves were arranged within the porch railing to accommodate jars which could be reached through pan els in the wall. McMasters was described as "a good sport.” “He helped us load it,” one of the officers related. McMasters was placed under $1,000 bond and Jrhn Harris, his colored cook who re sides nearby, is being held in jail in connection with the case. Some of the liquor was in standard half-gallon jars while a large quan tity w-as in the type known to offi cers as "bootleg” jars. These are plain containers that do not bear the manufacturer's name, and meas urement discloses that they lack ap proximately a pint of containing the full half-gallon.
