BIBLIOGRAPHY:
.-History of the Spanish heterodox, Volume 2, Marcelino Menéndez Pelayo, p. 1384 : « When Salmerón defended the International in the Congress of 1871, Castro, who at that time had a seat in the Senate, made public in a letter, which was reproduced by various newspapers, his adherence to the doctrines of his companion, and « to the theory of the immanent, starting point for the affirmation of the right in the human, and for the negation of the supernatural in the divine». Nothing would equal the repugnance that reading this letter inspires, even for aesthetic reasons, in which D. Fernando de Castro bequeaths Salmerón a gold feather, "historical monument of the last sermon of a priest who has lost the virginity of the faith, but which has gained, instead, the maternity of reason. »(…). »
.-Religious Modernism and its crisis, by Cristobal Robles Munoz, p. 119 : « On November 3, 1871, Castro wrote to Nicolas Salmeron. As a tribute to his speech in the Congress of Deputies, he offered him the Golden Feather that the Bilbao City Council gave him for having preached at the inauguration of the monument to the heroes of Mallona ».
