The Huron Expositor, 1872-05-17, Page 2AFTEW A BLAST,
It wasn't that I liked it, or felt
that it would be a nice life, but
what was a man to do 1 There was
the wifeand' the little ones, and the
empty poatet, and the en3pty cup-
board, and I knew that they must
be seen to. It's all very well to
talk 'about men, being idle and hang-
ing about; but then, whatlre you
to do if you can't get wok Some
men are lucky, and seem to have as
much as they like for the asking for;
then others are, all the other way,
and,After all sa,id and. clone, I know
as I am right in saying that there's
more hands to do work than there's
Work for them, and .if I had my
time to COfile over again, I'd be off
to one of the new countries, where a
Man as likes to work can always be
sure of enough to eat, clothes to
cover his back, and a roof over his
head, which you can't, be sure of,
here.
• Well, the missus hated the very
idea of me going down lone of the
pits, but the at how was it •to be?
There .we were in Staffordshire,
Without a penny ora stroke of work;
• and amen as I'd picked up with had

Oland to get me took on at the pit
where he was. ,
"Don't go, Tom," says the wife;.
but then, though I didn't Want to
go, something seemed to say, "You
must," and I knew this was right;.
so I tried to comfort her .up with a
few words, and said how, seldom it
was there was an accident; but it
was all no use.
Think of how many gets killed
with the gas •• explosions," she says,
and then, poor thing' being worn
out with worry, she cried. la good
deal, •and this hart me, and I don't
know how it wasr but it made me
vexed, and, I coadn't help it, I
spoke cross to her end then left her
crying bitterly as I got hold of my
cap and went out, banging the door
after me. , 1 • -
- And what did I bang thatdoor for
perhaps you'll say. Well, it was be-
- cause I was cross, End vexed, and
savage. Not Fa I was really cross
with her, pbor thing, bgt I made be-
lieve to be, whm it was only with
Things in general: You see, it seem-
ed like doing what I was going to
do out of opposition to my wife; and
I wanted to work myself up a bit; -
and so I did, by pretending to be
savage with her for :crying; so I
went oiit and banged the door. -
Stupid thing to 'do—bang the.
.door; but it's a thing as I've known
. people as thought a good deal of
themselves do, and then stand Ott
" the step a -putting on their gloves,
and looking as big as if the whole
'street belonged to them ; while peo-
ple opposite as heard the noise' came
to peep. Ah !it's a thing as 'a -many
men does is banging the deck to
make them- selves look big, and per-
haps it does make a man. loo,k big,
but I know, whenever I've done it,
it always makes me feel -very small.
But, big pi little, I banged the
door that day, and then went and
got "a. job/at thea.;pit to go on that
very night, for there had I been a;
strike, and all the bands hadn't come
back to works
Black, rough place to look at is a
pit, What with the coals, and the en-
able, and the auff •lying about.
Why, it was enough to make a man
repent, to see the Pit's mouth and
get a peep dewp the black h
listen to • the hollow sou
came up, while the: engine
pumping up the water; and the
smoke that came pp one shaft made
yo -a think as the place was all on
fire below. Fancy getting' a look
for. the first time down a black hole
six hundred feet deep, and _thinking
of the great strptching-out passages
and places where the coal was2 due
hundreds and hundreds of 'yard;
from the shaft! It made ,me feel
strange and queer, and that after-
noon, as I sat sat. home and kept
poking the 'firer I couldn't help
thinking about the new work I was
going on; and not a word did. I
speak till it was time to go, When 1
, managed somehow to screw out a
smile, and so did the wife—pretencl-
ing both of us to be pleased, when
we 'kn.ew all the while as We was
hurabwieinct one another. .
Now, I don't suppose they would
have took me on, only they were
Short of men, for only knowing how
to use_a pick and shovel I was not
'up to anything in the coal -pit work.
However, along with this chap
went; stepped into the cage with
some more, they- gave the word ;
and. then we were going down, faster
and faster, feelin' all trembly and
shaky, for it seemed that there
would be sure to be an accident now
I'd confe.
It isn't everybody as has felt the
sensation of going down a deep
shaft, -,Plunging right away into the
black darkness with a.strange sink-
ing sensation now and again, as you
listen to the quivering and shaking
noise, 40 wonder how much longer
it will be before you. touch the bot-
tom, and then What a. place to get
to when you. are at the bottom, after
,sinking six hundred feet into the
earth' If it had not been for them
at home, and the showing the white,
•
g thei in a working where it was
feather, 1 don't think I could have
stood it, and all I can ikty Is that
he must be a strong man who can
-go' down and work in a pit the firSt
time without feeling afraid.
But I wasn't allowed to stop
thinking, but followed . my mate
along one of the black passages, car-
rying our little wiie-shaded Davy
lamps. • Now we came to a pony
drawing a train of corves to the
shaft; and now we came to a door
with a boy stating it after us, and
sitting there—poor little fellow
in the black darkness and not mind -
ilia it a bit, but whigtlifig as merrily
as if he was in the open air. Now
there were great pools of water to
pass, and pillars supporting the roof.
Once we came to a place where a
lot of loose sttiff was lying •down,
and my mate and the other men
stopped, and. I stopped too, for I
felt—and I ain't ashamed to own it
—that I should have liked to catch
tight bold of some one's arm.
" Don't open your lamp," says'
one.
"Well, who's a -going to !" says
another; and all the whits I stood
shivering, half with cold and excite-
ment, half with fear, for I knew
well enough what they'd stopped
for; and then from feeling cold, I
turned all of a perspiration, and felt
now that the place was hot.
"She cOrnes fast, don't she?" says
one again very coolly.
Ah !" says another; and all the
time from between the seams and
cracks in the shiny, slaty coal -wall
there eame.a low, vicious'snaky sort
of hissingnoise, and. I knew well
enough that it was gas, without see-
ing that as they , held their lamps
near it there was .a sputtering and
flashinglgoing on, such as made me
shake again, for I,hadn't m,h con-
fidence then in a- Davy lamp, and
fancied that we might have an ex-
plosion any time. But we soon
went on again towards where we
were to work. •
Last of all, after wandering in
and out, we came to a narrow, hot,
stiffing place, and then I went at it,
doing -very little good, but knocking
the skin off my elbows, and cramp-
ing my knees and the back of my
neck, while the perspiiation stream-
ed off me. But I got l over all that
by degrees, and in the course of a
month could, by hard trying, do my
share pretty well, and take some
money home, but there was no get-
ting over , the dread of the place.
Poke away, you. as like a good fire,
and enjoy the ruddy glow and
warmth, for you little know what
we go through to get at the coal for
you. Paid—yes, we're paid ; but it
seems to me aS no man can be paid_
high enough for risking his life.
Now we're on our knees in a low
place picking away with a sharp
pick, smothered in black dus'
t now
the place is so low that we lie clown
on our sides and work, for we dig
out. nothing but•tlae vein of coal, and
follow that; Wherever it leads, And
what danger are we in Well,
fancy working in Such a rat's bole of
a place, with the air a so close- you
can hardly breathe, starting and
shaking. With fear every time a piece
of coal falls te the grounda--echoing
and , rollihg through the black cav-
erns, where your dim, gause-covered
lamp shines like some dull star in
the thick darkneis ; for you never
know what a moment may bring
le, and forth : roofs fall in and erush men,
ds that ok.bury themalive, Or shut them in
as busy to be suffocated; water gets the bet-
ter of them, and conies with a rush
from some old worling—mining its
way through, and drowns men help-
lessly like rats in their holes ; gas
collects and lurks treacherously in
corners -and cra,eks till some one
brings an unguarded light, when
there's a loud, thundering, cracking
report, and all within reach are
burned, blasted, and shattered ;and
they afterwards goes stealing along
the foul choke -damp, seizing men
and stopping them as they fly for
their lives, clutching them in an in-
stant, go 'that they tall as it were in-
to a deep sleep which knows no
waking; and all these dangers con-
stantly hanging round the man who
works hundreds upon hundreds of
yards.in the bowels of the earth to
find you coals and gas.
1 don't work there now, but I
can always shut my eyes and see
myself picking away there by the
dim light of a hanging lamp, listen-
ing to the noise of the shovels load-
ing the corves, and hear them gri
rolling away, along the trams, out of
sight in the thick darkness; and I
never think coals dear now, nor
hear of an accident in a pit—a,n
that's often—without giving a shud
der and being thankful that tirae
are altered.
I worked there a month, two,
three, four, five months. Some
times we heard the place
were dangerous, and had strict
er orders than usual. Sometime
there was a bit of an accident, such
as a man being crushed, or suffoca
ed, or falling down the shaft ; bu
somehow I got to take not so reueli
notice, of things, and worked stolidly
on,
for it had not come to my turn
to be hurt.
One day we were several of us to -
THE I-IURON ,EXPOSITOR.
v ry foul, and one of the chaps---ahl
t ree or. four of them—were a bit
o . There had been a, sort of
erry-rnaking up above, an4 beer
d been spilt pretty free. We
,ere in a widish bit, where big
blocks of the coal were left to -sup-
port the roof, only to be taken away
at the very last, when we were go-
ing to leave that spot, and the roof
'Might fall in if it liked, for we'd got
all the coal out. It was a nasty
part to work in; for somehow the
fresh air from the shaft didn't play
well here, and we could hear the gas
come crawling and hissing, and mak-
ing our lamps sputter fiermly. All
at once Lturned all of a cold chill,
for\three or four men were sitting
talking together' and as I was wip-
ing my foreheadI heard one say—
"Got any matches, Bill?" while a
feeling : of thankfulness came over
,ree as another said "No." _.
"1 want a smoke, lad," said the
rst ; and then the chill came over
,a
e again, for I thouilit he might
ake the top offthe lamp, and light
is.pipe at the naked flame.
No one but a madman would ever
o and light a pipe in a place full of
loose gunpowdetor yet parry an
pen light thererf but yet some of
ur mining chaps Will do what's
worse—go and open a light amongst
he dense gas, as that chap was try-
ing to then. But I was on him in a
moment, and just in time, and
after a sharp struggle got. the lamp
away. - ,
The others looked on and laughed,
saying as there was no danger; and,
like the man as I held down, calling
me a fool for my pains ; and at last,
seeing how' quiet he lay, I took up
his lamp and hung it alongside of
mine, and like the others went to
workagain, leaving this half -df unk
man lying quite still and going to
sleep. I. was picking away half -an -
hour after, thinking how foolish it
was to, allow men to come down like
that, when all at once behind me I
heard a sharp crack—such a noise
as most people knows well enough ;-
and dropping my pick I stood there
as helpless as a child,, with a dread-
ful feeling of horror on me. There
werei the lights of the other men,
andatheir picks and shovels working
away; there was the low, hissing
noise of gas, and the distant rumble
Of the corves, and the shutting of a
door, whose bang came echoing
along ; and there, in the black
darkness behind me, where I fancied
that man was asleep, I saw like a
little chain of bright sparks against
the black wall, and my tongue stuck
to the roof of my mouth, so. that l
could not shout, while my blood
turned quite cold in myveins as I
heard a succession of little sharp
cracks follow the chain . of -sparks,
and I knew that there, inthe midst
of that gas, some one was trying to
light a lucifer!
There4 WftS only a moment to
think, though, but it was long
enough for me to know that chap
must have found seme in his pock-
ets, for I saw the chain of sparks
again, heard the sharp cracks as an-
other match was tried, and then
there was one tremendous, blinding
flash, and it seemed as if the mine
had fallen in as I lay there half
stunned and helpless, wondering
whether what I felt was death. •
After a few moments I came to a
bit, and began to feel about and
wonder where I was, for everything
_seemed misty and confused in my
mind, and all as if it took place a
long time before. Evelything was
as black as the darkest night, as I
went feeling about, fancying that I
cold see things before me, till I
stretched out my hands and tried to
touch them, when I found I was de-
ceived. Once I thought I felt the
choke -damp getting the better of
me ; but though there was that hor-
rible smell of foul air, and I could
hardly breathe, yet I was able to
keep on, and after feeling about,
stumbling over pieces of coal and
lumps of the rod that had fallen in,
I began' to make out how it all was,
and that with the explosion a great
Mass of, the roof had come down,
shutting off one part of the mine
from another.
The cold sweat gathered on my
face as I leaned up against the wall
trembling, for I knew that I was in
a narrow working all alone, and it
cPthat I should be by myself
short time till. the air was no
fit to breathe, and then, in
.fmy present escape, I shu.d-
to think of the coming end.
s, that was how it *as. I had
-egularly driven into this bit of
sage while some of the big,
pillars completely choked up
ay; but the thought came to
t last that, however desperate
se, there was still hope. Then
an to feel my way about, and
rst thing I stumbled over was a
which I took up, and as I
d upon it I wondered whether I
make my way out through the
heap of coal into the main working,
but II dared not try for fear of letting
throx.gh any of the choke -damp. So
I began to feel about in the dark-
ness, and found that the place was
not many feet wide, and as I went
on it got narrower, and lower, tilkI
had to stoop, and then even go dawn
on my knees, wlien I began to get
low-spirited. for I had thought that
there would perhaps be a way out
into the main workings, not think-
ing that it was sudden death to be
out there now on account of the gas.
However, I crawled on, and then
all at 0I105 stopped shbrt and knelt
there trembling, for I had touched
something awful and 'motionless—a
cold, stiff hand. I tried to speak or
call whoe-ver it was; but it was long
en'OUgh before I could get out a few
words in a husky voice, and then
there was no answer ; so I leant for-
ward again, and after a little feeling
about touched that cold, Clenched
hand again, and then tried to feel
the rest of the body ; but there was
nothing but pieces of coal every-
where,' and I soon knew that the
poor fellow was buried alive.
What with the shock, and con-
fusion, and darkness, I seemed to
be in a dream; and it was long
enough before I could satisfy My-
self as to the part of the mine I was
in; but I tried hard to think it out,
and then remembered that I was in
a side -working, where I had been
myself a day or two before,
partly running, partly blown in,
had fallen here when the blast came,
blew clown the pillars, and then
:Stopped up the narrow entrance. At
last I sat dewn thinking and wonder-
ing what would be the end. Then
something seemed to get the better
of me—partly fear of the buried
man, and partly dread that the
choke -damp would come upon me
unawares, and I began to shoutand
scream for ,help, running about and
bruising myself, till, drenched with
perspiration, I fell down again and
lay groaning.
can't tell how long I lay there
before I recovered a bitand tried to
pray , and then I got to be calmer,
though every time the thought came
of those at home I was frantic again.
And so it went on, hour after hour
—hour after hour—as I lay listening
and hoping for help. Sometimes I
tried to reckon how long it would
be before the Mine was thought to
be safe again, and the men would
venture down, sometimes I
wondered whether they would
find me then—whether I should
hear them pass' by, or whether so
much of the roof had fallen. ihat I
could not make myself heard. I And
so the time went on, till I became
racked with hunger and thirst, and
then I'd drop into a sort .of dose,
and wake up again in the dark,
over and over again, till my heart
began to beat on waking at last, for
I heard the sound of picks, and a
sort of mufned hum of atroices, and
then I knew that they Were search-
ing the pit.

Now came the moments of agony
worse than ever, as I felt so weak
that I could only strike at the coal
feebly with my pick, and every shout
iounded smothered and. dull, but
there . came an answer at last, for
they were seeking for Me and the
other man ; and when I heard the
sound of many picks and shovels
rattling away at the heap of coal
between me and liberty I faintecl
dead away.
, But the sounds came plainer and
plainer at last; and in a sort of
dreamy, stupid state I felt myself
'cairied to the bottom of the shaft,
and then heard the clanking and
noise of the chain, the rattling of the
edge, and the hollow dripping splash
of water as rose quickly, and
when brought to bank there was the
wailing and groaning of the women
at the sight of another dead body,
as they thought. But though thir-
ty•seven poor souls were lost through
the striking of that match, I was
soon able to show by a thankful
look that some one clinging to me
was not then to be left a widow.
