The story of one young man convicted of serious crime and | |
facing the death penalty is featured by the docent in | |
this video clip. It occurred to the judge that a strong | |
young man could still have a purposeful, productive life | |
and so offered him a period (or lifetime?) of slavery in | |
the underground galleries of coal mining. The neck collar | |
marked his status and the display case lets modern | |
visitors remember his plight. It is one lens on the | |
Industrial Revolution of steam-powered empire and | |
enterprise. | |
