"To be thrown" - Does this make sense?

Does this make sense?

The typical morning activities include death cart labourers dragging the corpses of children, women and men out of their homes, to be thrown in a heap on a death cart and finally disposed of in nearby pits.

Yes, but it does not flow as well as this:

The typical morning activities include death cart labourers dragging the corpses of men, women and children out of their homes, heaping them on a cart, and throwing them into nearby pits for burial.

Hi Jadelinna,

The use of 'to be thrown' is really a contraction of what is understood to be 'which are going to be thrown'.
