did the temperance society have tea total pubs some of which were called "the perseverance"?

Answer 1

Despite the preceding answers, I can confirm that the Temperance movement opened many hotels and pubs that did not sell alcoholic liquor. There certainly were, within my lifetime, many hotels called 'Temperance Hotel', although I'm not sure about 'The Perseverance', all over the country. My father, who was teetotal and travelled during his work, would stay in such for preference is one was available.There is one temperance pub left which was featured on the TV some while ago, but I'm sorry I cannot remember its name or where it's situate, although I think it is somewhere in the northwest of England.

Answer 2

those who didn't drink alcohol was called a tea-totalers. no pubs that i know of would dare be called that. a pub is a place of serving of the spirits (and not those who go bump in the night kind of spirits). now, what do you mean by perseverance? that word would apply to those who lobbied against the selling of alcohol and also to those to defied the Volstead act of the 1920s. to persevere is to go on when the odds are against you. oh and by the way, the volstead act was the worst, the absolutely worst act and amendment of the constitution, EVER! prohibition of anything within a country only works when you have total support within. prohibition worked in india and other places where it was, and still might be, supported by culture and tradition/religion. because it was not universally accepted here in the states, it was doomed before it got off the ground.
