Faxon Targets Quincy Liquor Trade With Underground Detective System
Henry W. Faxon, Quincy temperance advocate, criticizes Chief Hayden for failing to curb liquor sales in a no license city. He reveals a personal “underground” tip system, claims up to ten or twelve Italian-run shops violate the law, and notes vast personal expense and extensive anti liquor work stored in a meticulously organized office. He also recalls disguises used in audits and a long career in crusading against rum.

Quiet Holiday at the Waterfront Amid Sparse Shipping
Yesterday along the Boston harbor the mood was hushed with business suspended except for dire needs. Vessels showed little decoration, save for the Cambro man, Indian, and Hermoine, each flaunting small flags. Towboat calls brought in coal cargoes, while tales of wrecks, repairs, and giant ships like the Dirigo and May Flint hint at a busy overseas world beyond the placid quay.
