Destruction of Razor Grinding Tools in Sheffield Scandal
The Heathcoat brothers were convicted at York assizes of wilful destruction of razor grinding machinery for Bradshaw and others. They alleged union involvement, naming four trade officials Drury Marsden Hall and Ballas as organizers. The trial drew a crowded Town Hall as witnesses detailed the plan to ruin tools, blades, and stones, with payments arranged for the work and threats to pay otherwise. The case extends to a broader union conspiracy with subsequent hearings and committal to York Castle for trial.
