The story behind "Give 'em Watts!" 

ON JUNE 23, 1780, AT THE BATTLE OF SPRINGFIELD, THE AMERICANS RAN LOW ON WADDING FOR THEIR MUSKETS. PASTOR JAMES CALDWELL INSTRUCTED THE MILITIA TO USE THE PAGES FROM THE ISAAC WATTS HYMNALS IN PLACE OF THE WADDING, TELLING THE MEN TO “GIVE ‘EM WATTS!” THE MILITIA WAS SUCCESSFUL.  THE BRITISH RETREATED!

Ingredients in the soap: saponified oils of olive, castor, coconut, and grass-fed beef tallow; water; essential oils (rosewood, bergamot, cedar wood); moroccan clay, charcoal, kaolin clay.
