When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth tea was selling in England a t from $10 to $50 per pound. I t was a luxury th a t had beeti known to Englishmen only h feiv years. Early settlers got along, without India or China tea for a long time. They used roots, herbs and leaves found in the fields and woods as a substitute for tea, Sassafras tea was a common drink. Tea was advertised for sale in. Boston in 1?(»3 for the first time, according to historians, In 17GS patriots began to take the pledge not to drink tea because p | the tax that the English government placed on it, • It became fashionable for patriotic ladies not to .Berve India tea, but as substitutes therefor “Labrador ten” and “Liberty tea,1' _Captain Pago of Danvers forbade bis spouse to taste tea beneath his roof as long as the tax remained upon it, but the strong minded arid ingenious lady ascended to. the flat rq,of of the house, invited her friends to follow and there served tea to them. Some other ladies of the .town' fared less fortunately, They used to borrow for their tea parties the big teapot of the once famous Bell tavern. One day, after drinking the forbidden beverage, the master -of the house unexpectedly walked in, jumped to the fire, grabbed the tea­ pot and turned it over, and out roll­ ed .a big frog .. The jovial patriots a t the Bell tavern, suspecting the use of the pot, had. placed the frog in it.

I n Salem, soon after the Boston party, David Ma­ son was suspected of having had his negro servant smuggle two chests of tea into his home. Patriots enter­ ed, and searched the house. They found the tea. They gave it"to .boys. Who paraded with it to Salem com­ mon and theje burned it, , Even after the Revolution trade in tea was not wholly unrestricted.

The average number of visitors to the city a t that time was estimated to be 20,000. I t is stated by an early historian that it was not an Unusual sight to sed strangers in the city wandering from house to house, carrying their baggage with them, seeking lodging for the night. At that time there were only three hotels conducted on the European plan. Lodging a t the latter was from $2,50 to $3.50 a week. Life Hiitory In Hair.
