The Longwy
dock strikes, in 1905, arose out of the efforts of a Republican
federation which attempted to organise the syndicates
that might
possibly
serve its policy as against that of the
employers ; ^ the business did not quite take the turn
desired by the promoters of the movement, who were
not familiar enough with this kind of operation.

I acknowledge my self a great and grievous Sinner ; I have sinned against the clearest Light and the dearest Love ; I have deserved to have have been spurned from thy Presence, and from the Glory of thy Power, and that thou shouldest now say unto me, I will have no more to do with such an unworthy Wretch, such a polluted, filthy Creature as thou art, and hast been : But, O Lord, there is Mercy with thee that thou mayest be feared ; and thou hast promised, that if a Sinner turn from his Wick
edness, thou wilt have Mercy on him ; and tho' his Sins were as Scarlet, thou wouldest make them white as Wool : Fulfil, O Lord, thy gracious Promise unto me, a poor Supplicant, in this my last Hour of my Life ; purge and cleanse me from all
Sin and Filthiness, give me true Repentance ; and if there lyeth any Sin not yet repented of, O Lord, thou hast heard my Prayers, my Sighs and Groans ; I hope and trust thou hast pardoned all my Sins, and wilt immediately
