Jim Slaughter's Narrative History:Cleaning the Pit Clothes
"Another little thing, the wives had cleaned all the pit clothes, for all they were filthy and likely to be filthy
again. They didn't want their menfolk walking down the colliery rows to work�and they polished their helmets, their
knee pads, their boots and they had to be turned out in a reasonable manner. They didn't want anybody saying that
their wives didn't clean their pit clothes."
