who were discontented did not rest here. Not satisfied with the exercise of their own right to withhold their own labour, if they were discontented with the price they received for it, they assumed the power of interfering with the right which others possessed, of exercising their discretion upon the same point; and accordingly you will have numerous cases laid before you in which large bodies of dissatisfied workmen interfered by personal violence and by threats and intimidation, to compel others, who were perfectly willing to continue to labour in their callings at the rate of wages then paid, to desist from their work, to leave the mine or manufactory, and against their own will to add themselves to the numbers of the discontented party; than which a more glaring act of tyranny and despotism by one set of men over their fellows cannot be conceived. If there is one right, which beyond all others, the labourer ought to be able to call his own, it is the right of the exertion of his own personal strength and skill, in the full enjoyment of his own free will, altogether unshackled by the control or dictates of his fellow workmen; yet, strange to say, this very right, which the discontented workman claims for himself to the fullest extent, he does, by a blind perversity and unaccountable selfishness entirely refuse to his fellows, who differ in opinion from himself. It is unnecessary to say, that a course of proceeding so entirely unreasonable in itself, so injurious to society, so detrimental to the interests of trade, and so oppressive against the rights of the poor man, must be a gross and flagrant violation of the law, and must be put down, when the guilt is established, by a proper measure of punishment." (1 C. & Mars. 662, 663, note.)
