c. S., Blue River-May I ask in the
question column just what are the
blue laws" and why are they thus
called?
Ans. The code of 1860 is a compila-
ton of the earliest laws and customs
of Connecticut. After the restoration
of Charles II. in England Puritan
true blue" became term of derision
applied to anything which smacked Of
Puritanism, and "blue laws simply
meant puritanical laws or laws with
a blue" tinge. These laws inflicted
the penalt yof death for worshiping
any god but the God of the Bible;
for speaking disrespectfully of the
Bible, Christ or the Holy Ghost; for
witchcraft, adultery, false swearing
and disobedience to parents. Hence
some present day extreme laws that
are not observed because of their
drastic nature are called "blue laws"
