Adr le Fayette
There remains therefore no other alternative than the
calling in the assistance of the body of the people at
large.
When you have obliged the two ordersprivileged to break
up their particular assemblies in order to come
to the and help make up the General assembly
and have declared that all other Assemblies
than the General one and its committees are but
assemblies of individuals destitute of all binding
force you have gone as far as you ought
Do not attempt to forbid their assemblies though
you should be sure of succeeding: it iswould be setting
a bad precedent altogether repugnant to the principles
of liberty. Big All sorts of people ought
to be allowed to assemble and to continue to
assemble so long as they neither do nor attempt to do<add>any</add>physical do no mischief. Let.
Let the pro, and say what they please.
Every man has a right to be heard: every man
has a right to speak his mind. You have
nothing to fear from any such assemblies or their
protestations: andbut you have every thing to fear from
No attempts to stople the
voice of any part of the
community - No suppressions
of hopes -- burning of publications No tearing bu
or defacing of registers. Leave
all such violences to the Parliaments the it example you would set in attempting to impress
them by force: it would be flyingabjuring in the face
of your own principles.
