______ Although DE VOLKSVRIEND from the beginning did not wish to be contentious, yet sometimes she was forced, also in the writer's time, to fight; sometimes when someone tried to harm the settlement; sometimes when religious questions were pending; sometimes when she was called to take sides on political terrain. It should be said that she never tried to be polemical, always searching for truth and righteousness. She sometimes had to be sharp, or had to use the whip of satire. ______ |
