Sacred Month Debate Shapes Chartist Strike Plan
In a General Convention meeting chaired by Mr. Duncan, delegates argued over timing of a universal strike on August 12. Mr. O'Brien urged proof of armed resolve and financial readiness before proceeding, while Mr. Warp and Mr. O'Connor clashed over armament reports from the Northern Star and the need to reconvene on August 31 to discuss universal suffrage. The division passed O'Brien's points, suggesting the sacred month may be dropped as Chartists weigh risk, with reports of three men linked to a highway robbery and impending sentences for Lovells.
