| Description | Tracks 1 - 5: Actuality with young women and Charles Parker in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. The young women take turns to recite extracts from the verbatim accounts of children to the Child Employment Commission (1842) in their own Yorkshire accents, directed by Parker who records muliple takes. Parker asks the young women what they think of the children's testimonies that they are reading; the extracts are mainly about the lack of education of the children who worked in the mines.
