Claare ny Gael 9th May 2021

At 6.00am on Monday 10th May 1897, the morning shift of 35 miners climbed down into the shaft of the Great Snaefell Mine. Within a short time, 19 of them were dead, overcome by a build up of carbon monoxide after a fire which had occurred some time after the final shift on Saturday and during the Sunday when the mine was not being worked. Our short story in Manx is about a tourist in Florence and the caprices of fate - is it wise to know the future or not?
