Daughters of the Revolution and Their Times: 1769–1776
Although the snow was deep in the streets, the drifts did not deter Berinthia from calling upon her friends. Many of the good ladies were ready to sign an agreement to drink no more tea; others hesitated. She was warmly welcomed by Mrs. Abigail Adams, who at once saw how great would be the influence of the women upon their husbands.
"But what shall we drink instead of tea?" asked Dorothy Quincy.
"When summer comes, we will go out into the fields and gather strawberry leaves, and call them Hyperion, or some other elegant name. . . .," Berinthia replied.
