It was a bit like Carol Singers except it was groups of children going door knocking. At each door, the children would offer to do a 'trick'. They might sing or dance or something else. The house holder would give them a reward. Then two months later a church group would do the same and then after singing a carol, they would collect some alms.
I don't know how it got corrupted into the modern, "demanding presents with menaces." Perhaps someone could enlighten me.

The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
