COOPERATIVES! The present moment so important for the sacred national cause in all of us causes a feverish disposition. The enemies of today's movement want, to the detriment of the nation and the cause, to dislocate the direction of this lust for sacrifice, our only strength [...] appointed by the Committee of Eastern Galicia, I take up a new position, and I take upon myself the heavy duty of watching over your conduct [...] do not take part in any street movement, for this is the business of our enemies [...]. Resistance of any kind a crime. Indifference a sin. Lviv, July 28, 1863 [Subp.] Head of the City of Lviv.
