[A letter to the printer complaining about interruptions by
fellowmen during religious services as lack of good
breeding, etc., includes] And would not they look upon it
very ill manners for a religious person to come among them,
at a dance, ball, frolick, or the like, and interrupt them
by a prayer, a sermon, or an exhortation. . . [continues for
rest of column, calling on civil authority and the stocks to
punish "these unmannerly rascals".]
