Description
On October 24, 1932, W. F. Lawson, sheriff of York county, and J. H. Charles, a prohibition officer, who were in a car driven by Charles, chanced to be upon one of the public roads of Warwick county. Two cars passed them, one a Ford roadster driven by Cliff Turner, followed immediately by a Packard touring car driven by the defendant. It was in the daytime and the officers recognized Dixon. His reputation as an habitual violator of the prohibition law was bad, and so they followed him. These two cars ahead were driven for a short distance down the State highway and from it into an ordinary dirt county road. The officers followed and came upon them in a short time parked by the road side and near each other. Both Dixon and Turner stood upon the ground, and Turner was in the act of handing out of his car to Dixon a bag in which was a five gallon jug full of whiskey. This was set down in the road and was there when the officers drove up. Dixon then got back into his car and drove rapidly away. In the Ford car were three other similar containers full of whiskey.
