READING THE RIOT ACT- At the American House, the proprietor refused to give his visors access to his liquor cellar and they became so demonstrative that Justice Charles W. Wetmore was called in to read the Riot Act, and admonish them to "disperse and depart to their several homes and lawful employments." But they didn't disperse "worth a cent", and were preceding to batter down the cellar door, when an armistice was brought about by the landlord pledging himself not to furnish any more liquors to the people of the town.
