Yesterday T3 went to the Brunner Mine where 65 people had died in explosion in 1896. We have been reading a book about the mine disaster in class called "The Mine's Afire." We went there to find out more information about the mine. In the afternoon we went to the Stillwater Cemetery to read out the names of the miners that had died and got buried in that Cemetery.
I learnt that after the mine exploded they still had to go back into the mine to work for money to feed their families.
