Tract of Athens Woman Temperance Crusade Grows
The Athens temperance movement records daily prayers and meetings as women pressure liquor brokers to sign pledges to stop sales. Despite refusals from Lowry Brothers and others, the drive gains momentum with pledges from J Kramer and D Edgar, renewed mass meetings, and a push to keep alcohol out of town. In a side note, T J Booth and J E McCready plan to move Middleport Woolen Mills to Athens, expanding production facilities.
