Note 78 — Chapter VIII
Eleanor Marx Aveling translation
The papers have just announced that Tailhade was wounded by an explosion at the Restaurant Foyot. The telegram (La Tribune de Genève, 5th April, 1894) adds—"M. Tailhade is constantly protesting against the Anarchist theories he is credited with. One of the house surgeons, having reminded him of his article and the famous phrase quoted above, M. Tailhade remained silent, and asked for chloral to alleviate his pain."
