Worshipful Company of Salters : ウィキペディア英語版 | Worshipful Company of Salters
The Worshipful Company of Salters is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London, 9th in order of precedence. The Company originated as the Guild of Corpus Christi, which was granted a Royal Charter of incorporation in 1559. Further Charters granted the Company the authority to set standards and regulations regarding the products of its members. Originally, the Salters' Company included individuals whose trades involved the usage of salts and the preparation of chemical mixtures for use in food. As with many other livery companies, the Salters' Company has lost its direct connection to its original trade. Currently, however, the company supports the chemical industry and supports education in chemistry, for example by awarding scholarships to chemistry students. Furthermore, it is a charitable organization. The Company's motto is ''Sal Sapit Omnia'', Latin for ''Salt Savours All''.〔Salters Advanced Chemistry - Chemical Storylines (2000). Page 240. ISBN 0-435-63119-5〕 ==Salters' Hall== Salters' Hall, St. Swithin's Lane, was home of the company until it was bombed in 1941. The hall was during the 1700s the meeting place of Presbyterians and in 1719 the site of the "Salters' Hall controversy" a notable turning point in religious tolerance in England.〔"This threefold body came together, then, at Salters' Hall, and first met the very day following that on which the royal assent had ratified the repeal of the Schism Act. It was thus repealed on the 18th February, 1719, and they met on." ()〕 The present Salters' Hall on Fore Street dates from 1976〔(The Salters' Company website )〕 and was designed by architect Basil Spence, best known for his work on Coventry Cathedral.
