Bail was set at 500 dollars, and being unable to pay, was sentenced to work in the mines he was striking from. In March of 1917, he attempted to escape through this very same airshaft in the video, but was shot and killed by the prison guard. #underground #abandoned #urbex | Underground Birmingham | Facebook
