The crusade for pure food, which
resulted in the act of Congress in the
present pure food laws, was led and
persisted in year after year by a son
Of Bath, who really was the father of
the act, says the Times. His untir-
ing work in Washington before many
congresses was for some law that
would cause all manufacturers of
groceries to provide pure goods to
the trade. This native son was the
late Charles E. Moody. the site Of
whose summer home. the Moody
homestead. is now incorporated in the
Texas shipyard. Not only was the
results Of this mans work seen in
pure groceries, but drugs and all
foods sold to the long suffering pub
lie. Mr.. Moody founded the great
wholesale grocery firm of Charles E.
Moody and Co, Boston.
