Constable Eiggs
Will/Destroy Liquor
Judge Haymond of the Circuit Court
on Wednesday appointed W. R. Rlggs
to destroy the liquor taken by the State
in the cases of the State of West Vir
ginia vs. James Weaver, George Crews,
William Bryant, Berkeley Williams,
Joseph Glynn, John Slirlver, Thomas
Trice, Kusman Tlntar.
Mr. iliggs was not In town at the
time the order was entered by the
court, but as the order directs that the
liquor be destroyed forthwith, it is
likely that there will be less booze In.
the basement of the court house tomor
row than there has been for several
months.
The order entered does not apply to
the cajload of liquors that came into
possession of the officers at Farming
ton several months ago. This case has
not been settled and has not reached
a point where the destruction of the
gods can be made.
