Jail break theft of whiskey from Rockport jail
The Rockport jail was entered last Monday night by sawing four iron bars from a south window and sawing into the cell lock. About forty gallons of whiskey were stolen, mostly in jugs, with only about two quarts left. No one was jailed, no suspect found, and the rust suggests the burglary occurred earlier than the last Monday. The liquor belonged to Moley Meyer of Huntingburg, previously seized for bootlegging.
