Clayton County Register, Thur.,
10 Jan. 1929
Charles Wareham, of Chicago, was fined
$300. and costs here yesterday afternoon by Judge W. L.
Eichendorf when he pleaded guilty to a charge of illegal
transportation of intoxicating liquor. Charles Wareham
will be remembered by many in this vicinity as the son of
the late Con. Wareham. He is now employed in Chicago and
in view of the fact that this was his first appearance in
court on a liquor charge, Judge Eichendorf was inclined
to be lenient with him in this matter and the above named
fine was assessed. No charges were filed against the
three other members of the party that had been
accompanying Mr. Wareham.~~~
