An anti-Union pamphlet, “the names of those, who have supplied the information, have been suppressed, generally at their own request, as many of them have stated, and this fact may give some idea of the terror inspired by these Societies, that their property and perhaps their lives might be endangered, were it publicly known that they had interested themselves in exposing the character of Trades’ Unions”
