The Civil War in Spain: Alicante, bombarded by the Intransigentes, 1873. 'This twofold war, of the Carlists in the north and east, and of the Intransigentes or Communists, on the south-east coast of Spain, both combating the Republican Government established at Madrid, continues to rage with unabated fury...The Intransigentes of Carthagena have been sending out their war-ships to threaten the neighbouring towns on the coast, and to extort contributions of money'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
