The youngest one in the bunch roast 1 over the creek where the canes were thick and he spied a sack. He yelled for the other boys and of course they went to see what he wanted. He said—boys, “I be lieve there is a still in here.” They began to searen around and behold they did find one. WeTl. they all were afraid that the of ficers would catch them there and took to their heels. But one boy said let us play officers ourselves. We will go back and pour out the mash and tear up the still—that’s the way they do. So they went back, dug out the still, poured out the mash, got a hand stick, put it under the still and took it home. The officers can get the still by going after the same.
