Combination of Master Builders Against the Workmen
A large public meeting in Islington rallied behind operatives driven from work by ruthless builders. Speakers urged unity to resist monopolistic contracting, defend wages, and defend free labor. Resolutions called on residents to support the workers, praise union effort, and form a fund with a collecting committee.
Statement Becomes Public After Firm Declines Signatures
The speaker said his statement could not be published without naming the complained of firm, which had withdrawn its men except the complainant who was discharged for another reason. He praised Mr. Barton of Spitalfields for his honourable conduct toward the turnouts. He would rather lose his right hand than sign away his rights. The resolution was carried by acclaim, a committee appointed, thanks to the chair given amid cheers, and Mr. Wakley gave an eloquent speech. A similar meeting occurred last night, with a full report to follow.
