Interesting Old Stuff?

Rico, John

Abstract: The first time that residents of Solano County had an opportunity to vote on the question of "wet" or dry" as far as intoxicating liquors were concerned, was far back in April, 1855. County residents, only a handful, went to the nine polls in the county, and cast 378 "no" votes, as compared to 143 "yes" votes. The residents of the county chose to keep their intoxicating liquors.
