M. A. Chambers
From Graces Guide
of Thorncliffe Ironworks and Collieries.
1884 He remarked to the Midland Institute of Mining Engineers that "one of the most serious difficulties that had to be encountered in the daily working of mines was that of getting properly educated and intelligent men into the positions of managers and deputies and other officers about the mines. It now seemed to be thought that if boys had passed a sixth standard they were too clever to go into the pit, and they should try and get their workmen to understand that no boy was too clever and too intelligent to go into a coal mine and to qualify himself in taking part in the management of a mine."[1]
Might this be Arthur Marshall Chambers?
