	Richard Coates

	Laud, Liberty, and Levellers
		At the new Church-Yard in Westminster some thousands of the better sort met them, who thought it not fit to march through the City.
		Of course, these beginnings were not allowed to proceed and the "true Levellers" gradually joined other later movements, such as the Quakers, which were not (or not so strongly) persecuted.
		The examination showed that these "true Levellers," as they called themselves, were in reality trying to found what we should now call a "collective farm." and their conviction was that, when men began to see the success of their venture, they would join it, and so establish in course of time a widespread co-operative system.
