LARGE REWARD FOR GIN BURNER.
-----
Bruceville Farmers Mean To Catch
Man Who Fired Gin.
-----
The farmers union of
Bruceville are determined to catch the party who set fire to their gin several
nights since. At a largely attended meeting, they raised a purse of $1035
which they offer for the arrest and conviction of the guilty party.
The union decided to rebuild the property
and sent Col. E. Tom Cax to Dallas to purchase the machinery.
Officers are at work on the case and the
guilty party will hardly escape, it is believed.
