How the construction workers did away with the foremen they dind't like and how this show the reaction of some parties to the atack on America. The British went to faraway contries to build the railroad to bring coffee metals and raw materials to the harbors to fuel the Industrial Revolution late last century. There were no machines and evrything was dinamyte and muscle. Once in a while the local workers were indisposed against their British foremen. There was not much to do but to dispose of him. It was agrred among all the workers that everyone would do it duty in the disposal. So there were no worker who had not stabbed the foreman. Then they would say that he had an accident and had to be buried at the side of the railtrack. No one was guilty and evrybody was sorry for the terrible fate of the foreman. As a amateur photographer I used to take photos of their graves with its name and date of fatal encounter with the disgruntled workers. Perhaps everyone sending condolences are today's 'workers'.
