Not Too Long Ago

15 Oct 1999

I would like to thank Coordinator Doris Hapgood, the teachers, and the students of the Rabbittown Learners Programme who workshopped the material. [...] The wall of ore towards which you looked was known as the “face.” The sides of the room were known as “ribs.” The roof was called the “back” and the floor was called the “footwall.” Two men using an air drill bored twelve holes to a depth of ten feet. [...] A machine called a “drag” hauled the ore from the face to the opening of the room. [...] With the wind in from the north and the snow squalls. [...] We were lucky to have salt in the hold of the boat, and that is what the engineer threw on the fire to extinguish it.
