the sixth day Of the week ee creation,
when 'Eoi created man male aud fe-
mnle." The rabbis' interpret the above
passage of holy writ as meaning that
the first race OF human beings were
creatures in which both. sexes were
united In the same Individual. Accord
Ing to De ia!Peyrere. Adam was tho re-

His followers were called "Pre-Alam-

rapidly until finally the movement be-
came so strong that the founder Of the
sect was compelled to go to Rome and
abjure his doctrine at tho feet OF Pope
Alexander VII.

Meeting houses, shops and taverns

Bulletin. The first provided the
Tread Of life, the second nlateria!
necessities. and the third entertain.
Hent for man and beast. Whatever
may be thought Of the %convivial ex-
cesses which developed In colonial
taverns, 1t must be admitted that the
liquors furnished were pure in uuality
end not the "rectified," blended" and
adulterated poison which ia dispensed
In modern high licensed hotels and
tarrooms.
Windham had It's full share OF pub.
lie houses In time long past, whose
Froprietors were men OF standing with
the honored names Of Backus, Brews
ter. Fitch, Lathrop, Parish. Ripley ant
warner. In those days most OF the
resident families were connected by
lntermarriage, wei on friendly terms
L dispensed liberal hospitality. So
cial life among the better classes was
free, enjoyable and often hilarious,
the larders In private houses being
well filled with decanters and glasses
on the locker always at hand. Large
rooms and halls In the taverns were
frequently used for various festivities,
the merrymakers being aver welcome.
At Wfndham Green were the public
houses OF John Stinford, Nathaniel
Hebard and John Fitch, all famous
for good entertainment and scenes of
mirth and festivity.
The Widow Cary, who became the
wife OF John Fitch. brought to her new
home the little god Bacchus, which
Tor many years occupied a prominent
position In front or the "old French
tavern" but now Oils one Of greater
honor In the rooms OF the historical
society at Wlndham Green. Revolu.
