" Not everyone, however, set such a table, even when he could afford it, for Pepys records a r given to tho ;oor by Sir George Downing ono Christmas at which nothing was served but beef, porridge, pudding and pork. It may havo been better than tho recipients usually had for everyday faro, but they Ton'd it a mean entertainment for Christmas. Tho boars head, as la well known, was for hundreds cf years tho pieco do resistance of every well regulated British Christmas feast, and it has been held by some writers that it becamo tho favorito because of a general desire to protest against the Jewish prohibition of pork. A more probable reason is that the boar was the fiercest of ail tho wild beasts of the country, aud killing him was tho highest achievement of the huntsman. Then, again, his heacf is very good to eat. Whatever tho reason, tho great dish was served with great pomp. It was served in style.
