Stran 7 - VI. c. 15, § 1, if any artificers, workmen, or labourers, do conspire, covenant or promise together, or make any oaths, that they shall not make or do their works Hfci at a certain price or rate ; or shall not enterprise or take upon them to finish that another hath begun ; or shall do but a certain work in a day ; or shall not work but at certain hours and times...

Stran 17 - No trades union, so far as our observation has extended, has attempted to give to the combination a wholly legal character by confining the application of its funds in support of men on strike to the limits within which alone combinations are legalized by the Act 6 Geo.
