He was later arrested, tried for "felonious riot," and subsequently hanged at Shrewsbury jail on April 7, 1821.  All three men were working-class individuals who protested against significant wage cuts imposed by local ironmasters in the East Shropshire coalfield. The event has gained greater recognition in recent years, with efforts by the Cinderloo 1821 group to commemorate the men and their fight for fair wages and better conditions.
