Court Rules Against Brewery in Ohio Probate Case
After hearing arguments in the probate court, Judge Thomas W. Orr ruled against the brewery, finding Happer and Quigley guilty of violating the local option law. The court suspended sentence pending a motion for a new trial, with fines potentially between 50 and 200 dollars. Books were turned over to Happer, who offered to produce them for any future motions. The case likely proceeds toward the Ohio Supreme Court, as temperance supporters won in probate and the brewery side pursues further appeals.
