In the video we learn about the extraordinary city of Manchester and the hardships that were going on at the time. It was a city where people had to make money for the lords. The video starts out by telling us some background infromation. It was bad if you were born poor and human nature was destroyed. Many would be very thankful of not having to deal with such times. The jobs that were offered were terrible because people would spend hours and days tending the machinery. Children were given dangerous jobs as well. But supposely it was worse when there weren’t jobs. Books were written about the miseries of Manchester life. In the book Mary Borton, the stories came true as you read them. Living in those times is the worst anyone could be put through. Elizabeth Gascol was the one to actually act and notice what terrible times were going on, but it didn’t change much. Church became a part of their life and probably the best part.
