Allentown Democrat, Nov 25, 1863
To Be Cleared Out
The town council recently resolved to abolish all houses of ill-repute in our town, and served notice on the various "establishments" to "shut up shop" with a given number of days and that in default of so doing the keepers would be arrested and summarily dealt with. Not heeding the notice, several arrest have been made and parties bound over to court.
