Dram-drinking
Dram-drinking often touches small contention and the ill-natured rivalry that gathers around petty wants — yet quitting it points toward rising above. The dream may ask where you're caught squabbling over little, what habit is keeping you small, and whether leaving it behind might lift you toward a more prosperous, settled estate.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for dram-drinking, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To be given to dram-drinking in your dreams, omens ill-natured rivalry and contention for small possession. To think you have quit dram-drinking, or find that others have done so, shows that you will rise above present estate and rejoice in prosperity.
