A Memorial for the Haymarket Heroes

Chicagoer Arbeiter Zeitung, Aug. 6, 1888

Four thousand men and women demonstrated yesterday at the Pioneer Aid Society's picnic in Sheffield that the working class of Chicago possesses a spirit of resistance which cannot be broken by a lying press or police tricks or persecutions.

Dr. E. Schmidt was the first speaker. The picnic was arranged by all German workers' clubs through the Pioneer Aid Society in order to raise funds for a monument for the Haymarket heroes.
