Government Oppression

  The following two pictures show the memorial of the Lattimer Massacre. After the execution of the Molly Maguires, the plight and oppression of miners continued. Nineteen years later, not counting other incidents that erupted, things came to a head in Lattimer. This time, they bypassed a trial stage and simply executed nineteen miners nineteen years later.

  Links will be added to various places, such as the Standard Speaker Newspaper, Hazleton, Pa, that give a more detailed account of what happened.
