He rented a stable near St Claires Crossing where liquor was found and faced a mayor's court verdict. Two other men also appealed after fines and road terms, posted bonds, and failed to appear at Tazewell court. O T Deaton attended the Deaton funeral in Coeburn, related to Heracle Deaton's death, as his uncle from Bluefield.
