Good Templars, independent order of

An organization the members of which pledge themselves not to make, buy, sell, furnish, or cause to be furnished, intoxicating liquors to others as a beverage. It originated in the United States in 1851, and in Birmingham, England, in 1868. The order has since developed into an international organization, with supreme headquarters in Birmingham, England. In 1901 there were over 100 grand lodges and a membership of nearly 500,000. The order has a membership in nearly every State in the Union, and it also has a juvenile branch comprising about 200,000 members.
