In 1691, John Hall left to the Weavers' Company a dwelling-house, with instructions to pay 10s. per annum to the churchwardens of St. Clement, Eastcheap, to provide on the Thursday night before Easter two turkeys for the parishioners, on the occasion of their annual reconciling or love-feast (settlement of quarrels or disputes).
This Easter, don't you wish somebody would give a couple of turkeys to Congress?
