Arthur Lawrence to his wife Lydia
Reading Time: < 1 minute
"My father, a coal miner, grew up and went down the mines in D H Lawrence's locale. He was also a reader of his work. It was dad who gave us the line that he carried us all on his shovel. And I have sympathy for Arthur Lawrence, who did the same for his family." You say my nails are dirty, and I say they are the nails of a working man, and these nails are on the fingers of a working man, and these fingers are on the hands of a working man, and these hands are on the arms of a working man, and these arms are on the shoulders of a working man; and I carry you all on my shovel as I dig for the coal that grimes my skin. So, milady do not disdain me, for though I am but a working man I am not ashamed of what I am. © D G Moody 2023
