Yes, all my life I've wondered when I've seen
Check after check go out with father's name
To help along some Mission over sea
Or roof some rising Charity at home,
I've often wondered that he's never seen
Those little shacks upon the hill out there
Nor heard the cry of widows from these saws.
Bishop Hardbrooke.
I would suggest, my brother, that we leave
The deeper things of God for quiet times
And turn our minds to something nearer home.
Harry Egerton.
I know of nothing nearer home than this,
The cry of men for justice at our doors.
Bishop Hardbrooke.
Suppose we get the Company to agree
To let bygones be bygones with the men,
And to restore conditions as they were——
Ralph Ardsley.
In other words to meet the men's demands.
