the law making power, and ended by
proclaiming that if no measures were
taken to suppress the plague the peo-
pie were justified in taking summary
vengeance on the MongolIans. The
resolutions were received with yells
by the listeners, and several unlucky
Cinnamon who passed by at the mo-
ment were knocked down and kicked
