Milton Whiskey Tax Woes Continue: 1904

 Milton Whiskey Tax Woes Continue: 1904

"The amount of the frauds on the Government at Milton, Caswell County, by a rectifier [distiller] in collusion with internal revenue officials, grows daily. At first they amounted to a few thousand dollars, last week [Internal Revenue Agent] Mr. Bouldin estimated them to be $30,000, and now the Greensboro Patriot estimates that they will aggregate $100,000."

The Progressive Farmer (Winston-Salem, North Carolina), 26 April 1904.
