'All Change' Act 1 Scene 9 - A treat for the men.
Act 1 Scene 9 : A treat for the men.
Crossley puts to Stephenson that now the line is complete the men should receive a gratuity. Stephenson does not agree and suggests a ‘beer and beef’ plan adding that something to eat and drink would be more of a gift to the men than money.
Crossley informs Stephenson that their arrangement with Pickfords to convey goods to and from the manufacturing towns has angered the bargemen of Wolverton and they have reacted by laying logs on the line. One accident had been reported and a £10 reward had been offered.
