SHINERS
CAPTURED AND STILL DESTROYED
Marshall Holliday and His Posse Return
From a Successful Raid
Sergent, KY., June 17-Marshall Holliday,
Deputy Collector Sam Collins and posse have just
returned here from a moonshine raid through Knott and
Perry counties, where they destroyed the bulk of the
Fourth of July moonshine supply. Five large, pioneer
stills were destroyed on the raid and four prisoners
captured.
Transferred to London Jail. Yesterday
Mrs. Mary Jane Shepherd, the alleged moonshiner,
arrested two weeks ago on a charge of moon shining in
this county, was transferred to the London prison for
safe keeping, as it was rumored around Whitesburg that
friends would attempt to release her. She is shortly to
be given a trial in the United States District Court for
Eastern Kentucky at London.
