By the way the mine disaster I am referring to is Samples Run in PA. Look it up. I believe 23 perished. My uncle was outside the portal when the mine blew. Picked up his bucket and walked home.
That’s “Sample Run”. I live about 10 miles from there! My sister lives about a mile away. Indiana County, Pa. Look up “Fulton Run Mines” I live in the town that grew up around those mines.
