Meeting at the Free Mason Tavern W. Lucas Esq. in the Chair
Mr Walkman
"I myself declare, that
though I have never
gone to the extreme of
universal suffrage &
annual elections, I am
still and ever shall be
willing to give the advocates
of those views the
fullest credit for their
sincerity and zeal –
Some amongst them
have done the greatest
good to the popular cause
by ability & application
in their writings to
enlighten the public
mind. Could we attain
triennial elections,
and a full comprehensive
extension
of franchises
to the people, it would
be in my judgment
a reform competent
to guarantee to the
nation a strict an
and unceasing controul
over the Executive."
