Sunday Laws Enforced In Pensacola Florida May 3
On May 3 Pensacola enforced Sunday laws for the first time in memory. Hacks and livery stables closed, soda water and confectionery stands halted, only street cars and trains ran. The county solicitor said no interference for now as state law sections clash. The sole Sunday morning paper ceased by midnight, others arrived to be collected later. Many residents faced meat bread and milk shortages, with extensive downstream economic impact. The Louisville Nashville Railroad wharf area saw suspensions and job losses. Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic ad promises a simple cure.
