Janet Schafers transcribed interview of John Schafer about moonshiners in Coal City, Indiana. According to Schafer, there was a man who buried whiskey in his garden and wouldnt let anyone know it was there. When people came to buy some he would have them drive down the road and come back. Once someone didnt drive far enough and saw him digging. All the man said was you came back too soon. |
