0:00:05 > 0:00:07We were all ready for bed.
0:00:07 > 0:00:12I can see he was looking... he always cycled to work.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16There was a big high wall by the door.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20He had the cycle, his bike, against the wall.
0:00:20 > 0:00:26And, he was pumping up air into the tyres and he was looking at us.
0:00:26 > 0:00:31Mum said, "What are you looking at?"
0:00:31 > 0:00:34"Oh, nothing", he said, "Goodnight. God bless".
0:00:34 > 0:00:37That's the last I ever saw of Dad.
0:00:47 > 0:00:53COMMENTARY: News depicts the scene of the disaster in North Wales.
0:00:53 > 0:00:59'A big explosion in the Gresford colliery near Wrexham in the early hours of the morning
0:00:59 > 0:01:01'occurred when men were working below.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04'The exact figures cannot yet be computed.
0:01:04 > 0:01:10'The scene as news is anxiously awaited tells its own story.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15'The deepest sympathy is extended to the bereaved by the whole country.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24# You've heard of the Gresford disaster
0:01:24 > 0:01:29# And the terrible price that was paid
0:01:29 > 0:01:33# 242 colliers were lost
0:01:33 > 0:01:37# And three men of a rescue brigade... #
0:01:37 > 0:01:40It sent shock waves throughout the country
0:01:40 > 0:01:44because so many people's lives in the '30s
0:01:44 > 0:01:46were caught up in coal mining.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51It showed people just how dangerous the job was.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54'Coal mining is the basic industry of Britain.
0:01:57 > 0:02:03'The coal mines of the country employ 750,000 men.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08'The miner works in a cramped position.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13'Often, he has scarcely room to swing his pick.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19'He works the seam, hewing out the coal.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25# Down there in the dark they are lying
0:02:25 > 0:02:29# They died for nine shillings a day
0:02:29 > 0:02:34# They've worked out their shift and it's now they must lie
0:02:34 > 0:02:37# In the darkness until Judgement Day... #
0:02:37 > 0:02:39The conditions were shocking.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45He used to work,
0:02:45 > 0:02:46because it was so hot most of the time,
0:02:46 > 0:02:51he used work in a pair of my mother's knickers, second-hand knickers.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54That's all he wore.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58In the '30s, it was blinking hot. It was like a baker's oven.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06Everybody knew that it was hot but it was their job
0:03:06 > 0:03:11and they couldn't say anything because there's no other jobs.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13He was what they called a hewer.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18They used to have to pick the coal.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21His big pick used to sit in the shed at home.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25He used take that with him.
0:03:27 > 0:03:33They used to hack the coal out of the side after it had been propped up.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36He'd sit down having a meal when he was in the kitchen.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41He'd say, "I don't know how long I'm going to stick with Gresford.
0:03:41 > 0:03:46"Under the conditions we work in, nobody should have to work".
0:03:46 > 0:03:50He used to come home absolutely tired,
0:03:50 > 0:03:56and black from head to foot, just like a negro, covered with coal dust.
0:03:56 > 0:04:02I'd get up in the morning, his head would be on the table, fast asleep.
0:04:02 > 0:04:07I think his wages then was around seven shillings a day.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13His was a 12-hour shift, and by the time he got out from home,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15he had no time to do anything at home.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18The time was gone - 12 hours.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24He didn't do very much. He used to go to church on a Sunday morning.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29He went every Sunday morning and then he'd do the dinner when he came back.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Gresford - the coal cutters worked regularly.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57They were always wanted, getting the coal up.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01Occasionally, they wouldn't need the afternoon shift.
0:05:01 > 0:05:08They used to blow the hooter and the locals would hear it, "Gresford hooter's gone".
0:05:08 > 0:05:10The afternoon men wouldn't bother going.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16He worked terrifically long hours when there was work -
0:05:18 > 0:05:19WHEN there was work.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Many times I've come home from the grammar school or the church school
0:05:26 > 0:05:33during the summer, and my father's been sitting on the step outside.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38I never thought I'd remember this but I do. He was crying.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42When I went up to him and asked him what he was crying about,
0:05:42 > 0:05:46he said, "They have taken everything from us.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53"Including our pride."
0:05:53 > 0:05:56They looked down on miners in those days.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59A lot of people.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03But I'm proud of my Dad. He was a good dad.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07# It occurred in the month of September
0:06:07 > 0:06:12# At two in the morning that pit
0:06:12 > 0:06:16# Was wracked by a violent explosion
0:06:16 > 0:06:20# In the Dennis where gas lay so thick... #
0:06:20 > 0:06:27My father and his brother were both employed as electricians at Gresford colliery.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29They used to work alternate shifts.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31It was Norris's birthday.
0:06:31 > 0:06:38On his way to work that evening, he called at his parents' home,
0:06:38 > 0:06:42probably because it was his birthday and so near to his work.
0:06:42 > 0:06:47He called to see them. He wasn't feeling too good that night.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50He was suffering from some ear trouble that he had.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53My father offered to go down instead of him.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57He said, "No, it's all right. I'll go down tonight.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00"I'm off tomorrow, so that's fine."
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Most of the men from our village...
0:07:06 > 0:07:12..had changed their shift to the night shift that night
0:07:12 > 0:07:16because Wrexham and Tranmere had a football match.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21They wanted to go to the football match.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23I left home with my father.
0:07:23 > 0:07:28As we were cycling along towards Gresford,
0:07:28 > 0:07:34two miners came out of a side street, they'd be neighbours.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36There was four of us cycling along.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39He said to me, "You'd better get on ahead".
0:07:39 > 0:07:43I really should have been on earlier than most miners.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47We were expected to be there to dish out the lamps.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51I just cycled away and left him. I didn't see him again.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53That was it.
0:07:54 > 0:07:59My job was at one of the windows dishing out the lamps.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02He was at another window.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06There were two windows, they were split into two lots.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09I didn't even see him to give him his lamp.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16'The whole of today's news is overshadowed and darkened
0:08:16 > 0:08:19'by a terrible mine disaster in North Wales.
0:08:19 > 0:08:26'There was an explosion followed by fire at Gresford colliery.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30The foreman said to me, "Go and get the ambulanceman".
0:08:30 > 0:08:33I got to the ambulanceman and knocked on his door.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37He shoved his window open and he asked what I wanted.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41All I could say was, "You're wanted at the pit".
0:08:41 > 0:08:46People were shouting, "Gresford's gone up, Gresford's blown up".
0:08:46 > 0:08:51This knock came on the back door and I went down to see what it was.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55It was Billy Bellis. I said, "What's the matter?"
0:08:55 > 0:08:58He said I'd better get dressed and go to Gresford.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02My grandfather was up very early the next morning.
0:09:02 > 0:09:11I remember him telling me that he saw quite a crowd of people walking past his house toward the pit head.
0:09:11 > 0:09:17He went down to ask where they were going, what they were doing.
0:09:17 > 0:09:24He found out then that there had been an explosion in the early hours of the morning.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31He obviously realised straight away the implications of this.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34He went down there himself.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36I don't know what time it was,
0:09:36 > 0:09:42but I remember them bringing up men dead on stretchers.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46They had to be dead with a blanket covering them.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49They were just taken away.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55'Six bodies were brought out within a few hours of the outbreak.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58'The Ministry of Mines has been informed
0:09:58 > 0:10:07'that the number of men still trapped in the pit is believed to be between 100 and 120.'
0:10:09 > 0:10:11The yard was packed with people.
0:10:11 > 0:10:16So, I walked through, met my boss and he said,
0:10:16 > 0:10:21"Get a lamp and a safety tally and come down with me."
0:10:21 > 0:10:23We went down the pit.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27You've never seen such a sight in your life.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32We had to go to where the fire was.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35The fire was like looking up there,
0:10:35 > 0:10:39right across, a bit further than that.
0:10:39 > 0:10:44You couldn't get beyond that and that's where the men were trapped.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49At one point, they came up against a terrific fall of coal.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54My father described it as shifting and spitting out flames.
0:10:54 > 0:11:01They realised then that there was little hope of finding anybody.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05'Good progress is being made in subduing the fire.
0:11:05 > 0:11:13'The rescue work is being continued in the hope of getting to the area where the men are cut off.'
0:11:13 > 0:11:17There were crowds of people waiting in the teeming rain,
0:11:17 > 0:11:21trying to find out what was happening.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Nobody could tell you anything.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27We'd come up and we went to go down again,
0:11:27 > 0:11:33and people was grabbing us, asking us, "Was there any chance?"
0:11:33 > 0:11:38We were there first thing in the morning and all afternoon waiting for...
0:11:38 > 0:11:43When we saw the pulleys coming up, we waited to see what had happened.
0:11:43 > 0:11:48"My son's down there", and all that. They had tears in their eyes.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51So, we just said, "Oh, aye", you know.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53We just said they could be up.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Anything.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01All these different people, all relatives or whatever they were,
0:12:01 > 0:12:04were swarming around all the while.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07I couldn't do anything, so I said to Billy,
0:12:07 > 0:12:10"There's no use stopping here.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13"I'll be in trouble if I don't go to work".
0:12:13 > 0:12:18There was police, I remember the RAC and the AA on the road.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20There was traffic arriving.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25I remember a big van loaded with normal fire extinguishers.
0:12:25 > 0:12:31They were unloading them. All kinds of things were happening.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37I said to my mother, "We don't know what's happening in Gresford
0:12:37 > 0:12:41"but it looks as if there's been a very serious accident."
0:12:41 > 0:12:43"Oh, dear", she said.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46I said, "There's only one thing I can suggest.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49"I'll go there this afternoon after work".
0:12:49 > 0:12:52She never said much. She was very calm.
0:12:53 > 0:12:58I got to work at about half past nine and I went into the boss.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02I said to him, "I'm very sorry, sir,
0:13:02 > 0:13:05"I've been in an awful job this morning."
0:13:05 > 0:13:07"What's the matter?"
0:13:07 > 0:13:12I said, "As far as I know, my Dad's working in Gresford pit.
0:13:12 > 0:13:18"There's been a nasty accident and it looks as if everybody down the pit's been killed".
0:13:18 > 0:13:23All he said was, "I'm very sorry to hear it. Get your book."
0:13:23 > 0:13:27I was there 'til about half past twelve or one o'clock.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30That's all he told me. He wouldn't say no more.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34He didn't tell me to go and look after my mother or nothing.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38That's all he said. No interest at all in you.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Only money, that's all.
0:13:41 > 0:13:48'We would like to express, on behalf of our listeners, our profound sympathy
0:13:48 > 0:13:52'to the relatives of those involved in this terrible disaster.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58We went to the canteen and had a cup of tea.
0:13:58 > 0:14:06We come back out and the Inspector of Mines was there and he stopped us all from going down.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09If we'd have gone down we'd have been dead, about 20 of us.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13'The work is tragically difficult.
0:14:13 > 0:14:19'Already, three members of a rescue party have lost their lives.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24# The gas in the Dennis deep section
0:14:24 > 0:14:28# Was packed there like snow in a drift
0:14:28 > 0:14:33# And many a-man had to leave the coal face
0:14:33 > 0:14:36# Before he had worked out his shift. #
0:14:36 > 0:14:43It was five o'clock in the morning and my husband came from Gresford
0:14:43 > 0:14:46on a bike to New Broughton.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50He rang the bell, and I thought, "He's an hour early".
0:14:50 > 0:14:53I went to open the door and he collapsed.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Newspapers were after him all the while.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02We'd got a baby, hadn't we, just turned three weeks old.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06These men were asking questions about the way he got out.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09They were really a pest.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13'From abroad as well as at home,
0:15:13 > 0:15:19'condolences on the terrible happenings at Gresford colliery have been coming in.
0:15:20 > 0:15:25'It is feared that the casualty list may be still heavier
0:15:25 > 0:15:28'than the estimates published yesterday evening.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34My grandfather waited there. He stood there for two days.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37I believe it rained on one of the days.
0:15:37 > 0:15:45They stood in the pouring rain just waiting and hoping some of the workers would be brought out.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Indeed, he waited all day on the Sunday.
0:15:48 > 0:15:53On the Sunday, it was his 50th birthday as well.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00We never sent him a birthday card, we never acknowledged his birthday
0:16:00 > 0:16:06because he had spent his 50th birthday waiting for news at the Gresford pit head.
0:16:06 > 0:16:12For him, he didn't want to celebrate his birthday after that.
0:16:12 > 0:16:17I came up on a Sunday afternoon, George and me,
0:16:17 > 0:16:23and the Salvation Army were playing and it broke my heart.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27The place was crowded, on top of the coal wagons, everywhere there's people.
0:16:27 > 0:16:32"Have you seen anybody?" I said, "I haven't seen anybody". Terrible.
0:16:32 > 0:16:37'It is with the very deepest regret that we have to give you this statement.
0:16:39 > 0:16:46'The mines department has just been notified by the Chief Inspector of Mines at Gresford colliery,
0:16:46 > 0:16:53'that, in view of the grave and increasing risk of continuing the rescue operation,
0:16:53 > 0:16:58'and being satisfied that none of the persons left in the mine can still be alive,
0:16:58 > 0:17:05'His Majesty's Inspectors of Mines, representatives of the colliery management
0:17:05 > 0:17:11'and representatives of the workmen employed, have decided to abandon the operations.
0:17:11 > 0:17:16'All the persons engaged in them have been withdrawn from the mine.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41As regards general management and supervision of the mine,
0:17:41 > 0:17:45it is right in fairness I should first draw attention to the fact
0:17:45 > 0:17:49that the average killed and injury rate at Gresford colliery,
0:17:49 > 0:17:52during the five years ended 31 December 1933,
0:17:52 > 0:17:59was lower than the rate for the remainder of North Wales and Great Britain.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07'Every working day, four miners are killed
0:18:07 > 0:18:11'and over 450 injured and maimed.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21'Every year in Great Britain, one in every five miners is injured.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25When you're in the pit, like with no other job,
0:18:25 > 0:18:28you don't think about danger or anything.
0:18:31 > 0:18:36Twenty past two on a Friday night is when they had their snapping.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39That's the time it happened, twenty past two.
0:18:40 > 0:18:46It is often difficult to state the exact place of origin and the cause of an explosion.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50Even when inspection can be made of all the workings.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53But when, as in this case, no inspection is possible,
0:18:53 > 0:18:59the place of origin and cause become matters of conjecture, not capable of proof.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02'The Davey safety lamp.
0:19:02 > 0:19:08'When gas is present, a blue cap of flame appears round the lamp and warns the miner.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14My father was adamant, and told me in later years in fact,
0:19:14 > 0:19:19that the management knew that there was gas down the Dennis pit.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26They used to take canaries in cages down there to test for gas.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29And, erm...
0:19:30 > 0:19:33..they lost quite a few of them.
0:19:33 > 0:19:40Some of the deputies said if they found gas and cleared it, they did not report it in their report book.
0:19:40 > 0:19:47All findings of gas should, in my opinion, be reported in the statutory report book.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50All of a sudden, I saw my flame had gone out of my lamp.
0:19:50 > 0:19:55I didn't know where I was, it was pitch black.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59When he was asked if he had had any trouble with gas in that area,
0:19:59 > 0:20:02the manager replied, "Never".
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Further asked, "Not even in the headings?" he answered, "No".
0:20:06 > 0:20:13This last evidence is in direct conflict with that of Mr JT Shaw, sub-inspector of mines.
0:20:13 > 0:20:18When the next man come up, he said to the chap, went to him and said,
0:20:18 > 0:20:23"There's someone here in the dark, and his lamp's gone out.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26"There's gas somewhere in the face.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29"Fetch the fireman as quick as you can".
0:20:29 > 0:20:31The fireman came to me.
0:20:31 > 0:20:36"By, you were lucky", he said. "Lucky you came off that coal."
0:20:36 > 0:20:40If I hadn't had come off that coal face, I'd have been gassed.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44The air measurements, said to have been taken monthly,
0:20:44 > 0:20:48as required by Section 29 of the Coal Mines Act 1911,
0:20:48 > 0:20:52were entered into the prescribed book.
0:20:53 > 0:21:00Some 18 months later, in June 1936, the assistant surveyor, when giving further evidence, said,
0:21:00 > 0:21:07that on the instructions of the manager, he had not made any measurements since June, 1934.
0:21:07 > 0:21:13That the figures in the notebook for July and August were imaginary and he'd concocted them,
0:21:13 > 0:21:18because the manager had told him to do so a day or so after the disaster.
0:21:35 > 0:21:41My grandmother talked a little bit more about things than my grandfather did.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Before the Gresford disaster, she used to have long hair
0:21:47 > 0:21:51which she used to wear swept up on top of her head.
0:21:51 > 0:21:57After the disaster, she had her hair cut off. She cut it off.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03These days, you read about counsellors.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06I'm sure they're exceptionally good for people.
0:22:06 > 0:22:12But I had counsellors - my aunties, my grandmother, all the aunts.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15I used to just go from one to the other.
0:22:15 > 0:22:21I used to just go from one, round to another, round to another.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24He had quite a big family, my father.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31She must have had a breakdown. She used to go and put the kettle on.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Always going to the back kitchen and putting the kettle on.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38As if she was expecting somebody all the time.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Dad used to cycle to work.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48And she used to stand there and she could see him coming,
0:22:48 > 0:22:53and she'd start preparing the meal or get the tin bath out for washing.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57You know, he'd be black as coal when he'd come home.
0:22:57 > 0:23:05She was doing that all the time until Dr Melia, our doctor, said,
0:23:05 > 0:23:08"Mrs Jones, I can't do any more for you.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12"The only solution is to move from here".
0:23:12 > 0:23:15That's how we moved from the house.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Norris and Mary had been married 10 months before the disaster.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24They lived in Llau, a village near Wrexham.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28My grandmother and Mary shared many interests.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31They both loved needlework.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36This was one thing they occupied themselves with after the disaster
0:23:36 > 0:23:40as they were trying to deal with their loss.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44I have a book that Mary bought for my grandmother, a book of needlework.
0:23:44 > 0:23:49I know that my grandmother always treasured this book.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56She did actually make a little stuffed dog that she called Peter.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59She always had him on the sideboard.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04She used to say that he was sewn with tears.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11When they put this photograph up
0:24:11 > 0:24:15with all the miners who had been in the explosion,
0:24:15 > 0:24:20they put it up in the local, little village shop.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25They put it up in the barbers, which most men of the village used.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28They put it up in the shoe repairers' shop.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32You couldn't get away from it.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44# A fortnight before the explosion
0:24:44 > 0:24:49# To the shot-firer Tomlinson cried
0:24:49 > 0:24:53# "If you fire that shot we'll be all blown to hell"
0:24:53 > 0:24:57# And nobody could say that he lied... #
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Shot-firing in the 14th district was carried on
0:25:00 > 0:25:06with little regard for the requirements laid down in the Explosives in Coal Mines Order.
0:25:06 > 0:25:12The workmen were as keen to get the shots fired quickly as those who were firing the shots,
0:25:12 > 0:25:16if they were to get through their shift's work.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21He was a secretary for the miners.
0:25:21 > 0:25:28He got blackballed because he disagreed with some of the things the management were doing.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30They blackballed him.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34They stopped him working in any local pit in Buckley.
0:25:34 > 0:25:42He went to about five different collieries before he could get a job.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47It is of importance that a large proportion of the persons employed at the colliery
0:25:47 > 0:25:51weren't effective members of the North Wales Mineworkers' Union.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55That was advanced as a reason why the union was inactive,
0:25:55 > 0:26:01and why no mine inspection on behalf of the workers had been made for many years.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05'A seven-and-a-half hour shift begins.
0:26:15 > 0:26:21There was a considerable evidence that men were allowed to work, and did work,
0:26:21 > 0:26:26longer hours permitted by the Coal Mines Regulation Act 1908.
0:26:26 > 0:26:31In fact, the provisions of that act were, to all intent and purposes, ignored.
0:26:31 > 0:26:38The manager, in his evidence, said he knew this practice was a breach of the act
0:26:38 > 0:26:43but many of the men liked it and they asked for it.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24# Down there in the dark they are lying
0:27:24 > 0:27:29# They died for nine shillings a day
0:27:29 > 0:27:33# They've worked out their shift and it's now they must lie
0:27:33 > 0:27:36# In the darkness until Judgement Day
0:27:36 > 0:27:41# Farewell our dear wives and our children
0:27:41 > 0:27:46# Farewell our dear comrades as well
0:27:46 > 0:27:50# Don't send your sons in the dark, dreary mine
0:27:50 > 0:27:54# They'll be damned like the sinners in hell. #
