The Poles were denied the use of their own society hall for strike meetings; and the town invoked an ordinance aimed at freedom of speech and public assemblage. A sympathetic clergyman offered his churchyard as a meeting place. The town govern ment retaliated with another ordinance, to prohibit any meeting on property abutting on a public highway, - this, somewhat on the principle of the French Assembly which decreed that no deputy should be a crown minister. Say rather, gentleman, replied that states man sarcastically, no deputy named Mirabeau! From the flat-topped tombstone of a soldier of the American Revolution, a strike-leader, haranguing his fellows, -was dragged to arrest. The town later voted for spe cial police. These reserves, by an amazing blunder in tact, were recruited in part from the police of Lawrence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
