give me a few pence to help them through the
awful passage to heaven. But Lord bless her. I did
my best.

And if they didn't have any money, well, I.
Speaker 5 (15:10):

to think about. It wasn't so I an mighty After that.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
He never had visitors and I didn't neither.
Speaker 6 (15:56):
That is not till one day, three months after I
first come here, and it was William Hartley.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
I didn't like the nasty weasels smile on him.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Well, Price, I heard ab your misfortune, and I came
to sympathize, thoughtful William. How do they treat you in here.
Speaker 5 (16:15):

going to lend me the money if I misjudged you, William,
my good friend.

Speaker 4 (17:24):
You shouldn't have done that, Pross.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
I won't forget you.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
Pay for night.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
I paid thirty lashes and slam gullion for a month.
I wasn't going to forget William Harshley never in mid life.
It was mister Lovelace who saved me a crust to
a bread when I was brought up from the black hole.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
It was the best meal I ever had. Then things
was the same again. The weeks went by. I wrote
a song ball Mister Lovelace did the words in writing
for me. I called it The men are destinies hard fortune,
whereby is hopeful harvest is like to be blasted.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Nobody bought it, and I still didn't have the money
to pay me debts. When I had about Betty and
the kid, they had and off and left me.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
That's when I made up in mind to get out
of Marshall c That and William Hartley. I'd pay a
little call on in. I told my idea of mister
Lovelace one night, mister Lovelace is closer. Listen, I'm getting
out to sea. Now you've treated me right. I'm willing
to take you with me.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
But how can you We've got these chains.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
It's impossible. No, we don't. They take them off in
the afternoon when we exercise, don't they all right, that's
the time. But leave it to me. You want to
go with me, I'd rather die try and stay all right?
So here's what we do. There's a wood shed to
the gate in the yard. Doors always open. When we
(19:04):
have our constitutional tomorrow. We up in there and wait
till it's dark. One of the keepers will see it.
There's a new one on. I've been watching him. He's
been drunk for a week. Easiest pie you wait. The
next day we did it.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Stayed hiding behind the wood until night felt funny without
the chain's gone. After so long and about ten o'clock.
We started out of the ship. I took a thick
stick from the wood pile. Sh come on, the gate
will be locked.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Have to do a bit of timing. Then I all clear,
Look keeper, he's asleep. We have to pass him. Suppose
a new weeks out. He won't.
Speaker 9 (20:04):
Look.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
You can be an hand up first and I'll pull
you over right, all right? Come here and you come
and there's London ain't at the loveliest sight. William Hartley
is out there in it. Come on. We stayed together
(20:36):
until we were well out of sight of the prison.
Then mister Lovelace said goodbye.
Speaker 10 (20:41):
I'll leave you here first. I can't thank you enough
for helping me. We shan't meet again. I suppose I'll
always remember you. Goodness, and he went his way.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
A couple of minutes later, I found a broommaker going
home from selling his wares and I, after a short argument.
I had two silver shillings in my pocket. I tossed
for it. William Artrey now all later my first one,
(21:15):
and that took me to the nearest hailhouse in bannil Fields.
Artley would have to wait, but not for long. I
was going to do him a mischief, pay the little
scut back before the night was out. It was two
hours later that I left the ale house with a
(21:35):
loveless wishing in me belly and happiness and mead.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Being drunk. I couldn't one my life remember what it
was I had to do. I knew there was sapping,
how his groans was dreadful for to her as the.
Speaker 6 (21:55):
Stones they pressed upon him, and Check stood solemn, not
shedding a tear.
Speaker 5 (22:06):

give me a few pence to help them through the
awful passage to heaven. But Lord bless her. I did
my best.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
And if they didn't have any money, well, I.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Wouldn't hold it against him. You know. Of course, I'm

to think about. It wasn't so I an mighty After that.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
He never had visitors and I didn't neither.
Speaker 6 (15:56):
That is not till one day, three months after I
first come here, and it was William Hartley.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
I didn't like the nasty weasels smile on him.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Well, Price, I heard ab your misfortune, and I came
to sympathize, thoughtful William. How do they treat you in here.

my good friend.

Speaker 4 (17:24):
You shouldn't have done that, Pross.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
I won't forget you.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
Pay for night.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
I paid thirty lashes and slam gullion for a month.
I wasn't going to forget William Harshley never in mid life.
It was mister Lovelace who saved me a crust to
a bread when I was brought up from the black hole.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
It was the best meal I ever had. Then things
was the same again. The weeks went by. I wrote
a song ball Mister Lovelace did the words in writing
for me. I called it The men are destinies hard fortune,
whereby is hopeful harvest is like to be blasted.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Nobody bought it, and I still didn't have the money
to pay me debts. When I had about Betty and
the kid, they had and off and left me.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
That's when I made up in mind to get out
of Marshall c That and William Hartley. I'd pay a
little call on in. I told my idea of mister
Lovelace one night, mister Lovelace is closer. Listen, I'm getting
out to sea. Now you've treated me right. I'm willing
to take you with me.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
But how can you We've got these chains.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
It's impossible. No, we don't. They take them off in
the afternoon when we exercise, don't they all right, that's
the time. But leave it to me. You want to
go with me, I'd rather die try and stay all right?
So here's what we do. There's a wood shed to
the gate in the yard. Doors always open. When we
(19:04):
have our constitutional tomorrow. We up in there and wait
till it's dark. One of the keepers will see it.
There's a new one on. I've been watching him. He's
been drunk for a week. Easiest pie you wait. The
next day we did it.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Stayed hiding behind the wood until night felt funny without
the chain's gone. After so long and about ten o'clock.
We started out of the ship. I took a thick
stick from the wood pile. Sh come on, the gate
will be locked.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Have to do a bit of timing. Then I all clear,
Look keeper, he's asleep. We have to pass him. Suppose
a new weeks out. He won't.
Speaker 9 (20:04):
Look.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
You can be an hand up first and I'll pull
you over right, all right? Come here and you come
and there's London ain't at the loveliest sight. William Hartley
is out there in it. Come on. We stayed together
(20:36):
until we were well out of sight of the prison.
Then mister Lovelace said goodbye.
Speaker 10 (20:41):
I'll leave you here first. I can't thank you enough
for helping me. We shan't meet again. I suppose I'll
always remember you. Goodness, and he went his way.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
A couple of minutes later, I found a broommaker going
home from selling his wares and I, after a short argument.
I had two silver shillings in my pocket. I tossed
for it. William Artrey now all later my first one,
(21:15):
and that took me to the nearest hailhouse in bannil Fields.
Artley would have to wait, but not for long. I
was going to do him a mischief, pay the little
scut back before the night was out. It was two
hours later that I left the ale house with a
(21:35):
loveless wishing in me belly and happiness and mead.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Being drunk. I couldn't one my life remember what it
was I had to do. I knew there was sapping,
how his groans was dreadful for to her as the.
Speaker 6 (21:55):
Stones they pressed upon him, and Check stood solemn, not
shedding a tear.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
