In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

1828 Definition
TAL'LOW, n. A sort of animal fat, particularly that which is obtained from animals of the sheep and ox kinds. We speak of the tallow of an ox or cow, or of sheep. This substance grows chiefly about the kidneys and on the intestines. The fat of swine we never call tallow, but lard or suet. I see in English books, mention is made of the tallow of hogs, [See Cyclopedia, article Tallow;] but in America I never heard the word thus applied. It may be applied to the fat of goats and deer. The fat of bears we call bear's grease. Tallow is applied to various uses, but chiefly to the manufacture of candles.
TAL'LOW, v.t. To grease or smear with tallow.
1913 Definition

kinds, separated from membranous and fibrous matter by melting.
* The solid consistency of tallow is due to the large amount of stearin it contains. See Fat. The fat of some other animals, or the fat
obtained from certain plants, or from other sources, resembling the fat of
animals of the sheep and ox kinds.
