To revolutionize Connecticut it will be necessary to circulate, without any intermission, many gross falsehoods respecting the men in power, the judges, legislators and magistrates, and the acts and proceedings of the General Assembly.
What could now be expected from these men but that they become immediately the creatures of a party--the tools of a faction?
Let Judd and Bishop approach the sepulchures of these venerable men--let them lift the covering from these venerable ashes and in the face of heaven pronounce them TYRANTS!!
Another item in the expense of accomplishing these projects, is a corruption of morals.
