“Protest of the Mutuellistes” (1834)

December 21, 2018 Shawn P. Wilbur

The Society of the Mutuellistes of Lyon, placed by the mere fact of their will outside the political circle, thought they should fear not aggression on the part of the men in power, when the law against the associations came to reveal their error to them; that monstrous law, a work of the most savage vandalism, violating the most sacred rights, orders the members of that society to break the links that unite them and separate! The Mutuellistes have had to investigate and deliberate.

J. Wm. Lloyd, et al., “The Whisper Song of the Catbird” (1911)
