Transport of Liquor Case Raises Legal Question
Henry Horsburg, an employee on a British Columbia Huntingdon ranch near Sumas, was arrested by U S customs officers and is jailed awaiting a ruling on his guilt for transporting liquor across the dry line. The whisky, consigned to rancher Harry Vanderhoof, was claimed as purchased in Canada for the employer. A burglary at Huntingdon station led to the find of a case that contained school books instead of liquor.
