The May 12 1922 edition of the Toronto Daily Star contained this picture of a judge who was trying to stamp out the manufacture of illegal moonshine:
Google searches turned up the following:
- Mill Creek is now a suburb of Louisville, Kentucky. Not sure how you could arrest everybody there. (Though this page mentions a town called Mill Creek.)
- I found this reference to Judge Hiram J. Johnson.
- If this page is to be believed, Judge Johnson passed away less than two months after this photo was taken.
I found no references to moonshine in Mill Creek, so I’ll never know whether Judge Johnson really did try to arrest everybody.
