Prohibition enforcement in early America traced by chiefs to whisky sales
The piece surveys early enforcement of liquor bans from 1660s New Netherland when Oratamin and Mattano seized brandy to curb trade, through Miami leader Little Turtle appealing to Friends of Baltimore, to U S Army orders by Wayne and Wilkinson. It links modern Prohibition to historic bootlegging and details harsh 1797 punishment of Lydia Connor for liquor selling, contrasted with Wilkinson’s clemency.
