Sunday Law Cases in Danville

At Danville, Va., on February 17, sixty-two persons, foremen and laborers engaged on the $2,000,000 plant of the Dan River Power and Manufacturing Company, in course of construction a mile above Danville, were arraigned on the charge of violating the Sunday law by laboring on the preceding Sunday. An adjournment was taken before the hearing of the cases was completed. It was claimed that "the work is essential, and that the works can not be completed without some Sunday work."
