Why was the sheriff on lanark killed?

It is said that English soldiers under the Sheriff of Lanark (who was English) murdered the wife of William Wallace in an attempt to flush Wallace out of hiding. Wallace at that time was an outlaw, wanted by the English for stealing beer from a Perth tavern. However, this is all probably fanciful as it was written much later by chronicler John of Fordun. In all probability, the Sheriff of Lanark was killed at the start of the revolt against English occupation of Scotland. Whether Wallace killed the Sheriff or not is open to question. Wallce did not start the revolt, he merely responded to one already begun. Anyhow, the Sheriff of Lanark was killed simply because he was an English figure of authority, probably.

What was life like for the children in New Lanark?

Life for children in New Lanark during the 19th century was markedly different from that of children in many other industrial settings. Under the reformist leadership of Robert Owen, children were provided with education, vocational training, and a supportive environment, which aimed to improve their well-being and prospects. Working hours were reduced compared to typical labor practices of the time, and there was a focus on moral and physical development. Overall, New Lanark served as a progressive model for child welfare and education during the Industrial Revolution.
