It was hit by lightning and burned to the ground. His loss amounted to $70,000 in money of the day. He was banker and merchant of Lebanon. Was it located in Wilson Co. and where?

I don't know anything about a distillery, nor even about R. S. Haley. I just did a lookup for you in Thomas E. Partlow's WILSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE, CHANCERY COURT RECORDS 1842-1892. Mr. Haley appears to have also been a constable. The following is the only listing for Robert S. Haley. Bill of complaint of James T. Gambill, William Atkinson, and William A. Robinson against David M. Blankenship of Dekalb County, Ralph Martin, B. W. G. Winford, James Hamilton, S. M. Tompkins, executor of Ed Tompkins, and Robert S. Haley, constable. Injunction. 18 August 1865 (Chancery Court 1865-1867, Pp. 548-551) Just a little tidbit to add to your information.
