(解説文要約)
後山は昇坑してしばらくすると、勘量係室に当日の出炭検査を受けた自分の炭札を取りに行きます。
規定量不足やボタが多く混じっていると賃金が引かれるため勘量係に罵声をあびせる女性もいたようです。
After a couple of hours after leaving the pit, Atoyama, the carriers,
would go to the Kanryo room, inspection and scaling room, to pick up their Sumifuda.
These were the tags they placed on the coal skips they loaded.
The Kanryo would inspect that day’s output and quality to decide their wages for the day.
Some women were yelled at by the inspectors for not loading the required amount of coal,
or for including too many stones and rocks resulting in a cut of their wages.
