Band of Hope pledge with Lillies

Abstract

Not employing many of the traditional symbols, this pledge issued by the UK Band of Hope Union probably dates from the early twentieth century. It includes tobacco, which was not uncommon after 1870 in children’s pledges.

I Promise to Abstain from all Intoxicating Drinks as Beverages And from Tobacco.
