PLEASE HELP ASAP PLEASE WRIGHT UP TO A PARAGRAPH PLEASE HELP "Accused of ignoring their employees' safety, Triangle owners Black and Harris were charged with manslaughter. During the three-week-trial angry citizens packed the courtroom. Outside, in the corridors, women screamed, 'Murderers! Murderers! Make them suffer for killing our children!' Lawyers argued that Blanck and Harris kept all of the Triangle doors locked during the workday, therefore causing many of the deaths. Weighing the evidence, however, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. 'l cannot see that anyone was responsible for the disaster,' explained juror H. Houston Hierst. 'It seems to me to have been an act of the Almighty.' The New York Call viewed the matter differently. 'Capital can commit no crime,' it angrily declared, 'when it is in pursuit of profits.'

Furious New Yorkers refused to let the issue rest: In October 1911 the city established a Bureau of Fire Prevention to inspect safety standards in other buildings. Five months earlier the New York State legislature created a special Factory Investigating Commission. Through the next four years Commission investigators crawled and pried through the rooms and cellars of factories and tenement houses all across the state. They examined workers' filthy living conditions and witnessed the dangers of crippling machinery and long work hours in dusty, dirty firetraps." (2-3)

How does the jury and the New York Call differ in the views on responsibility? (2.6)

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
