The Law

Back in the 1800s, church decorum was paramount, and distracting the congregation was seen as highly disrespectful. Practical jokers who thought a fake mustache would liven up a dull sermon quickly found themselves on the wrong side of the law. This quirky statute was designed to maintain strict solemnity and order during Sunday worship services.
