the Committee that the Mexican peo.
pie loved the Church, but the politi-
clans have always hated and feared 1t

PURtTANs DID NOT PRdHis,r
DRINKING OF LIQUOR;

NBy N. G. w. c. News SerVice,)
washington, d. c.. May .'11.-Puri.
tan legislation for the colony of Mas.
sachusetts not only did not t'prohibit
the making and drinking Of liquor but
specifically required that innkeepers
should always provide good and
wholesome beer for strangers and de.
creed that the tavern be situated near
the meeting house so. that members
OF the congregation could convenient.
ly enjoy a glass Of wine after the
services. =,
These facts were brought out by
Representative James Gallivan OF
Boston In speech in the House. To
show that the Puritans were willing
enough to curb every other form of
personal liberty except that of drink.
Ing, Representative Gallivan read into
the Congressional Record q bill of the
pastor of Old North Church., Boston.
for food and drink, including LIQUORS.
This was the Church of Increase and
Cotton Mather those celebrated ex.
emplars of Puritanism.
This bill. dated in 1772. was as fol-
lows: i" y
ITO be sent to Mr.. Towhsend's
(for ministers entertained there) one
plum cake, one Cheshire cheese, one.
half barrel Of beer, two bread bricks.
one.half dozen Canary wine. two
pounds fresh butter, one-half barrel
of ale.
From the cook shops: Three small
patties, 12 dozen tarts.
ITO boil: Five hams, bacon. five
legs of pork, is meat tongues. tvh
dozen fowls. q
TO roast: Five pieces of beef, i've
loins Of veal, five quarters Of lamb"
The purchases included also sauces.
pickles and vegetables, raisins. cur.
rants. spices and "16 puddings." Then
followed this rather liberal. supply. of
liquid refreshment: - ~ 80 y,
"Lickquer: One barrel Of beer. one
barrel Of cider. one.fourth ,cassk Of
Madeira wine." =. ~. -
Pipes and tobacco (Which also
were not among the evils under Pufi.
tan inhibition) and "one dozen drink
Ing glasses" were in the bill.
Representative Gallivan explained
that he referred to this bill with no
object of disparaging "men and zen.
erations that played big parts in tho
early life and history Of our country"
but to show that the Puritans did not
put liquor in the category Of things
which they condemned and prohibited.
"The Puritans would have repudiat-
ed the act Of our friend from Mime
sofa" Representative Volstead), "or,
any other law fixing q percentage on
their food and drink" said Mr.. Gal.
