No sooner did the young deputy comein sight than Parks bent over his work, or stooped to trim his lamp withthe wire that passed through it; he never once gazed frankly and openlyin Philip's eyes. Time wore on, and there could be no doubt about it, the mine regulationswere better kept, and hence there was less likelihood of an accidentoccurring, though, of course, the utmost vigilance could not protectthose who worked from mishap. Philip, with his father's help, devised two or three alterations ...in theventilation of the mine, which also made it less fiery, as the pitmencalled it; but his great project was to have another shaft. "You see, father, " he said, "we burrow into the ground like animals, butwe do not take their precautions. A fox or a rabbit always has a secondhole by which he can escape if there is anything wrong with the first. Ours is without doubt a dangerous pit, and if anything happened to blockthe shaft, the poor fellows down below would be entombed.
