United States v. Coulter

The license does not authorize the defendant to sell to slaves or negroes on a Sunday; it is therefore no justification as to those facts. The practice of selling spirituous liquors in a public manner to negroes and slaves, assembled in considerable numbers, and suffering them to drink the same in and about the house on the Sabbath, constitutes the offence of keeping a disorderly house.

Verdict guilty. Fined ?10.
