The wearing of hats in chapel.
The article says that women would not have warn hats in chapel at the time Salem was painted. This is incorrect. Women were always required to wear a hat in chapel. This is because St Paul said that women should cover their hair so as not to distract men from worship. However men always removed their hat as a mark of respect.Up until the 1960s it was common for chapel going women in Wales to wear a hat.2A00:23C7:5D2C:A601:F9A7:78F8:2532:CFD9 (talk) 11:48, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
