The walls and roof are double-boarded with packing between, and when the door is closed, the heat is almost suffocating, as the only ventilation is by a hole the size of a 5s piece. The man sweats and gasps for a time, and then he is taken out and made to stand or sit naked in the open, no matter what the weather is, The exposure from one extreme to the other is torture. If this does not break the man’s spirit he is struck on the head with the butt-end of a rifle and knocked unconscious. He is then taken down into the mine and not allowed to come to the surface until he has agreed to ■work. BEE OINTMENT IS WHAT YOU.
