Der of stripes varied according to the enornity of the offence. Here are some of the tnEsancsss On the S0th of No vembsr, I6S0, and possibly before the regular whipping post was set up, & man was whipped for shooting st 6 fowl on the Sabbath dsy-whsthsr he hit her or not is another matter. There WAS S grim bit of humor enacted At the court on this day, for the first business transacted was 10 fine one of the assistAnts Eve pounds for whipping two persons without another of the assistants being present, As the act provided.
 On the 9th of Septenber, 1889, 6 man was ordered 'tto be severely whipped for cursing, swearing. then sustifying the same and glorifying In it." and another man, who hEd sold B gun, pistol, pew der and shot to MonlowsnpAte Saga more JAmet), was whipped and branded in the face with A hot Iron. On Decem-
 Der 9, l6a0, one Mrs. Oliver wAs whipped for representing the magistrates, and rhe
 "stood without tying and bore her punish ment with masculine spirit, gloTyinR tn her suffering" But there was something more, for sometime after ''she had 6 cleft | stick put on her tongue half Rn hour for | representing the sldsrs"
 In September, 1851, Obadiah HoImss, for being Baptist, was whipped with ex-
 eseding severity, yet be told the mBgis.
 trstes it was ss with rods of roEss, Rl.
 though the blood streAmed from his cut and bruised body.

 bresst, was whipped for being & Quaker

Roston,s whippfng-Post.


 The first whipping poet in Boston was erected in front of the cid meeting house. This old meeting house, the First church of Boston, was an unpretentious structure of wood, and was sltuated on State street, on the ground which Is now occupied by Brazer's building, and in 1t preached the first ministers of the tOwn-John Wilson and John Cotton-and thiiher went to worship John Winthrop and Richard Bel MnRhsn and all their zsalous Puritanical followers. The church remained here un- til l64O, when 1t was removed to thst part of what we now call Washington street, nearly opposite the head of State street, on the site of the present Rogers building
 But the whipping post remained in its original position for some years AfterwArd, until 1t WAS removed to near the West street gate of the common, and public whippings, whether deserved or not, con tinued to be inflicted as Ists as 1908.
 Samuel Breck, in his Recollsctions, says: ''The large whipping post, painted red, stood conspicuously and permanently in the most public street iB town. It wss placed in State street. directly under the windows of 6 great writing school which frsquentsd, and from them the scholars were indulged in the spectacle of all kinds | of punishment suited to harden their hearts and tantslsEe their feelings.
