Gilliam Davis Jennie’:; sometime husband, has .the reputation of having a Mormon in stinct. and Jennie accused Pearl of “running after my husband.” Pearl declared the husband contributed the running feature and the fun started. Myrtle is mid to have made a good assist,mt to Jennie and the neighbors were aroused by the commotion.

The many kinds of refreshments Used hy American people since Mr. Volstead made an amendment to the constitution is only known to the offi cers.

The of ficers have the opir.u n however that the aged bottled-in-bond is a fake, that the seals and labels are only counterfeit and the fluid better kero , stecn than liquor. Recently Deputy Sheriff Borne Dcdniond was pax-mg along that way when some boys in formed him that a man was selling “bottled in bond” in the woods near the road. The officer made an investi gation, but the salesman established a speed record through the pin' s. One bottle was found and the label told or its aged qualities. Many tracks and numerous broken seals were around the place showing that business had been good, the officer said. An exam ination of the contents revealed that it was just North Carolina “cawn bil ker,” of the -meanest variety.
