Photograph of the miners memorial
to the 38 men and boys
who lost their lives
in the Montagu view pit disaster
Scotswood, Newcastle upon Tyne
on March 30th 1925.
and 32 of the miners
are interred in the enclosed space
at elswick cemetery
Newcastle upon Tyne.
Also remembering all other miners
and all the armed forces
the men and women
who gave their lives for their country
so we could all live in peace
and on day we'll meet again
in a beautiful garden of sunshine
beyond the stars
where we'll find
no more suffering nor tears
and all are free from pain
for the lord said
be not afraid
for i am with you always.
JOHN ATHERTON (J.T.A.)
