Prohibition talk and temperance notes in a rural chronicle
A fragmented reminiscence recounts a concealed liquor incident behind a meeting house and graveyard led by Lawe John, followed by praise for Rev. Reynolds and a pledge drive. The piece then shifts to a moral tale of restraint and a veterinary cure for drinking, citing an American recipe and a North Germany report on drinking harms and crime.
