Gentlemen:
This letter is written in connection with the sale which you
are presently advertising, involving the selection of one day
of the eight days of the sale, in which all purchases for that
day are to be refunded to your customers.
I have analyzed this plan, and in my opinion the same
constitutes a violation of the Lottery Laws of this State. I
have accordingly instructed the Sheriff to inform you that the
proposed sale is illegal, and ask you not to proceed with it.
All such merchandising schemes, which involves an ele
ment of chance through means of a drawing or otherwise, and
the giving of some prize or benefit to winners, is a violation of
the law, and prohibited.
I regret the inconvenience which will be caused you, but
have no choice in the matter.
Very truly yours,
WILLIAM W. GRIFFIN
County Attorney.
