The church was neglected, drunkenness fearfully increased, and social life was sadly corrupted. Bundlingthat ridiculous and pernicious custom which prevailed among the young to a degree which we can scarcely creditsapped the fountain of morality and tarnished the escutcheons of thousands of families." Hereupon there came a buzzing around my ears. Divers good sons of Connecticut winced under the soft impeachment of having a bundling ancestry, and intimated that my sketch of society in the olden times was somewhat overdrawn. In 1861, an esteemed antiquarian friend in Connecticut wrote me as follows: "Some of your friends feel that, in your History of Windsor, you showed too much inclination to malign, or at least ridicule, Connecticut institutions, though I think none of them accuse you of malice in the matter, and they fear that this subject of bundling cannot be ventilated without endangering the fair fame of old Connecticut." ......Buy Now (To Read More)
