| Description | One envelope containing 84 newspaper cuttings, some discuss Lord Penrhyn’s statement that men were too afraid to return to work due to an ‘unseen tyranny’, which many take to mean the trade unionists supporting the strike. They also detail the meeting of the Caernarvonshire council meeting and what was discussed in relation to the strikes. Most cuttings detail the plans for the re-opening of the quarries and the amount of men going back to work, they also discuss the idea of using police to protect those resuming work at the quarries. Other cuttings discuss plans for strikers immigrating to Canada. A few cuttings show how the quarrymen’s choir have been helping to raise money for the Penrhyn Relief Fund. |
