The Social Cancer

CHAPTER XLIX
9/20

Now there are tulisanes who are such for life.

A single fault, a crime inhumanly punished, resistance against the outrages of this power, fear of atrocious tortures, east them out forever from society and condemn them to slay or be slain.

The terrorism of the Civil Guard closes against them the doors of repentance, and as outlaws they fight to defend themselves in the mountains better than the soldiers at whom they laugh.

The result is that we are unable to put an end to the evil that we have created.

Remember what the prudence of the Captain-General de la Torre [131] accomplished.
