Moving Picture Censorship Hit in Ohio and Grave Robbery Tale
Ohio censors deleted seven film reels and cut twenty more from eighty three examined, banning kisses and several risky scenes while sparing others.

The piece blends sensational movie morality with a local intrigue about treasure rumors and family lawsuits along the Yadkin river.
