↑ Source: #S366 Page: http://www.durhamrecordsonline.com/literature/thornley.php Data: Text: In 1843 the men of Thornley Colliery came out on strike because of the harshness of their Bond conditions. The owners of the colliery at the time were listed as Thomas Wood Rowland Webster, John Gully & John Burrell. Arrest warrants were issued against 68 men for absenting themselves from their employment on November 23. At the subsequent trial a number of named miners were called to give evidence. These were: John Cockson (Coxon) Matthew Dawson Thomas Dermot Moran John James Bird William Wearmouth George Nesbitt William Henderson John Stephenson Joseph Longstaf Newrick Walton John Cresswell William Wilkinson William Turner William Anderson William Ord William Kay John Bates William Toplis Augustus King Robert Toplis Robert Walton Reuben Forster Charles Willet George Edwards Henry Willis Joseph Burnett William Parkes Joseph Kirk Edward Clarke Joseph Walker Robert Parker Robert Richardson Andrew Hope Jabez Wonders Some of these can be found in the 1841 census. All gave similar evidence at the trial, choosing to go to jail rather than work under the existing Bond. The magistrates duly obliged, sentencing all 68 to 6 weeks imprisonment. Immediately after the case however their lawyer, Mr. Roberts, obtained a writ of Habeas Corpus and the men who were in prison were removed to the Court of Queen's Bench in London where, upon an informality (a technicality) they were acquitted. They all returned to County Durham as heroes but the Bond remained.
