 | Voters of Durham! rally for your homes, your country, and your God! The Prohibition Committee of Durham, North Carolina, created this broadside in 1886, to support a slate of candidates who vowed to abolish the sale of liquor. J.F. Freeland ran for mayor while Edward J. Parrish, G. W. Watts, C. C. Taylor, W. J. Wyatt, J. S. Carr, T. M. Stephens and J. S. Durham sought positions as town commissioners. The broadside reproduces an exchange in the Durham Recorder, between liquor dealers and church officials over whether a father sold his children's clothing to purchase alcohol. | |
