Hugh Heinrick (1831–1877) was a journalist and teacher and a campaigner for Home Rule in Ireland. He was born in Caim near Enniscorthy in County Wexford, Ireland and his surname suggests that he may have been a member of the German Palatine community that settled in the area in the early 18th century. Some time in the mid-19th century, Heinrick moved to mainland Britain, first to Kirkcudbrightshire in Scotland and then to the Aston district of Birmingham, where he settled and worked as a schoolmaster. He was very much involved in the Irish Home Rule movement in the late 19th century, being Secretary to the Irish Home Rule MPs during the General Election of 1874 in which the Home Rule League won 59 seats. He was a frequent speaker at public meetings about Irish Home Rule and wrote a number of newspaper articles on the subject. In 1871, he was Editor of the 'Irish Vindicator', the first newspaper for Irish migrants in London, although it was not a success and closed after only four months.
Teetotalism is the practice or promotion of total personal abstinence from alcoholic beverages. A person who practices teetotalism is called a teetotaler or is simply said to be teetotal. The teetotalism movement was first started in Preston, England, in the early 19th century. The Preston Temperance Society was founded in 1833 by Joseph Livesey, who was to become a leader of the temperance movement and the author of The Pledge: "We agree to abstain from all liquors of an intoxicating quality whether ale, porter, wine, or ardent spirits, except as medicine." Today, a number of temperance organizations exist that promote teetotalism as a virtue.
