Even for the children, there was no hope of escape, for as soon as they started to work, they too-- were "thirled" to the pit for the rest of their lives. -- Parents were so inured to the hardships of their own lot that _Husband#--You did perfectiy right, it never should have been put in. ;. _ The employer then presented "aries" ®r earnest money to "the father, and #From that moment the babe was bound or life to the pit.

The compensation that the miners had for this life of slavery was that the master was compelled by--law to Kkeep his serfs.all their days, and to supply a coffin for their burial. But gradually the public conscience was awakened, and in 1775 an act was passed to emancipate all persons who after xb,t @ate, "whall begin work as the existing miners should be set free, gome in seyen years, and others at the end of ten years.
