A PURITAN VILLAGE IN 1680
IV
The basic principles of human
conduct in the Puritan civilization
were work and piety, but they
were inseparable and had to. be
practiced together If you had
been a Puritan of the 17th cen
tury you might have been pos
sibly one or the most willing, in
dustrious and capable workers in
the colony. But u you nao jacnea
Piety. U you had neglected the
church, if you had played games
on Sunday, it you had ooservea
Christmas as a holiday and a time
of merrymaking, the heavy hand
ot authority would have fallen on
you and most of your Holidays
would have been spent in- the
stocks.
But on the other hand, let us
suppose that you were as pious
as Cotton Mather, that you never
failed to pray and to attend
church, to read the Bible and to
keep the holy commandments;
but, let us suppose further, that
you nover got out of bed until 10
in the morning, that you never
did a stroke ol work and scorned
industry of all kinds. In that case,
though your piety would have
been commendable you would,
have found yourself in the stocks,
side by side with the atheist who
made work his religion.
The Walling , family, combined
work ani piety in' such, sound
prportions tlr the two parts
fitted togetlw perfectly.
Every member of the family
except the very young children
had some Kind oi worn 10 ao.
Even little daughter Patience,
who was only eight, had been
taught to embroider samplers and
to hem table napkins.
Henry, the oldest son he was
22 was employed by his uncle in
Boston. This relative owned a
number of vessels that made trad
ing voyages to the West Indies.
Young Henry did not expect to
remain permanently in the ship
ping traue. His father wanted him
to pass a few years in that occu
pation, and to make voyages in
the ships so that he might learn
something of the world at first
hand. After his experience in bus
iness and travel he was to come
home and give his time to the
Walling farm and other properties.
The second son, who had the
Puritan name of Feargod, worked
on the farm under Samuel Gay-
lord. He was not a. laborer but

a kind of student, learning what
he could. Feargod Walling cher
ished a deep and rankling discern
tont which broke out occasion-
tent which broke out occasionally
in tantrums, or fits ot temper.
He did not want to be a farmer;
he had no interest In the soil, in
agriculture, in stock breeding, yet
he was, bound to these occupa
tions, probably for life. If he
lived today he would be called
an intellectual. In 17-century New
England the only pursuits open
to an Intellectual were the min
istry and schoolteaching. Fear
god, although a faithful Puritan,
was not sufficiently theological
in temperament to pass his life
preaching on Biblical texts. As
to schoolteaching that was im
possible. In all colonial commu
nities the schoolteacher stood low
in the social scale, and usually
with eood reason. He was often
a drunkard, or ne'er-do-well, and
his pay was so small that he had
to live in a state of perpetual
siiabblness. No, Feargod Walling
did not want to be a schoolmas
ter. ...
Harriet, the Wallings' oldest
daughter, had been taught to do
everything that belonged to the
duties of a Puritan housewife.
Part of each day she spent in the
spinning and weaving room in the
leanto, where she spun flax and
wool and wove them into cloth,
Among her occupations was the
accumulation ot linen lor ner own
hope chest. She had already 12
pairs of linen sheets. She had also
21 towels and 4b table napmns.
The large number of .napkins
was due to the fact that forks had
not come into use as table imple
ments. Food was picked up on
the flat end' of a knife, or in a
spoon, or with the bare hands.
Whenever bones were encoun
tered, as in a turkey or a piece
of pork, both hands were used. In
the course of an ordinary meal
the h'ands became soiled several
times. Before each person at the
table stood a small ewer of water
in which he would dip his hands
and wipe them with a napkin. As
a result many napkins were used
at each meal.
WaitstiH's wife Rebecca, a
plump and blooming matron, was
busy every day from morning to
night with household tasks.. Be
sides her grown daughter she had
two maids to help her, and all of
them had as, milch as they could
do. Cooking stoves did not exist
nobody had ever heard of such
a thing and the huge meals were
cooked on an. open fire. In the
yardi back of the kitchen there
was a brick oven for baking bread
and roasting venison. All the wa
ter used in the house had to be
brought by hand from a well in
the barnyard.
In addition to the ordinary
household activities there 'were
others which, are entirely un
known to the modern housekeep
er, such as candle molding, soap
making, weaving and dyeing, the
making of brooms and the brew
ing of beer for the household.
Another of her jobs was the
compounding of household reme
dies, tvery giri, before her mar
riage, was trained to make palsy
drops, mitnrldate, Venice treacle,
snail water and pokeberry plaster,
besides a long list of other salves
and potions. I here were no physi
cians in Sudbury and the nearest
apothecary was in Boston, so the
housewife had to be prepared to
meet sickness in the family with
remedies from her own medicine
closet.
(To Be Continued)
There are houses built of lum
ber in the United States over 200
years ago that are in cood condi
lion and in use; in Europe there
are lumber dwellings at least
twice tnut old.
