Note 376 — Chapter VIII
Reading edition
Gross, i. 109. “Not a single unmistakable example of such a conflict has ever been deduced.” On this point Seligman (Mediæval Guilds, 57-8) speaks very dogmatically on most inconclusive evidence, so far as this is given in his notes. The analogy on p. 58 of craft guilds including smaller unions is not shewn, nor their common occurrence proved.
