“Sources disagree on when the last Icarian communities ended: scholarly accounts date New Icaria near Corning to 1898 and Icaria Speranza in California to 1886, whereas Britannica's Cabet entry gives 1884 for Corning and 1895 for Cloverdale.”
Context. A motion to dissolve New Icaria was made on 23 February 1895, but dissolution was final only in 1898; some writers use 1895.
