Bookkeeper for Rum Ring Testifies About Big Cargoes

Boston Feb. ... Associated Press The government called nine surprise witnesses today at the trial in Federal court of John Magnus and others on rum smuggling charges. George A Callahan, former bookkeeper for Magnus, testified about expeditions from Nova Scotia to Cape Cod. He said Magnus owned two speed boats built at a Neponset shipyard and the Nova Scotia schooner Fun Alone, with shipments landed at Harlow's Landing between Plymouth and Sagamore. Callahan claimed he managed the money and that Magnus asked him to prepare the company at Lunenburg to fix up the boat, and that he communicated with Magnus during voyages using the alias J B Rogers. The first landing of the liquor was in December 1924, the last in April 1926. Halwmite testified earlier, denying involvement but acknowledging conversations with other Coast Guardsmen.
