So you can fetch the letters, if you like, from Mr.
It looked with suspicion on the factories built after Ingolby came and on the mining propositions, which circled the place with speculation.

Another part of our work was defending people from unjust landlords, exposing workhouse scandals, enforcing the Employers' Liability Act, Charles Bradlaugh's Truck Act, forming "Vigilance Circles" whose members kept watch in their own district over cases of cruelty to children, extortion, insanitary workshops, sweating, &c., reporting each case to me.
