Humanities Program--RUNAWAY WIVES
March 26 Lincoln Thursday, 7 p.m., Lincoln Town Hall
Runaway Wives: When Colonial Marriages Failed
When 18th century wives tired of the marriage contract, they could run, but they could not hide. Husbands chased them down via newspaper ads, effectively removing their sources of income. In the vocabulary of the war between the sexes, one reads of enduring economic and social barriers to runaway wives. Marcia Schmidt Blaine, Plymouth State University, presents this program which is co-hosted by the Upper Pemigewasset Historical Society and the Lincoln Public Library. Contact Carol Riley 745-8159
