Round-Up Chief Leaves for National Police Chiefs Meeting
Round-Up Chief Henry Beusse left this morning for St Louis to attend the national association of police chiefs session beginning Monday. He will be away a week, with Captain Fred Seagraves in charge in his absence. Chief of Detectives Charlie Seagraves and Officer H M Moore unearthed a gallon can of whiskey in the old cemetery after a search sparked by long suspicion of a booze cache. The pair’s effort was likened to resurrecting angels to John Barleycorn. The day’s other events included recovery of an automobile stolen near Hodges Road, a $50 reward previously offered, and a series of missteps by a merchant who misplaced his car and later aided in its revision. Attendees at the Georgia High School meeting include Prof H E Carreker of Commerce, F M Brown and wife of Swainsboro, T O Simmons of Crawfordville, and J L Brown and wife of Metter. Asa Hammond waived commitment on a prohibition charge and was held to bonds for the next city court term.
