The mines were closed and have never been re-opened. The last time I was in Calamine, I could not locate much mining signs. Uncle Bill Ball had a brother who lived at Opposition in the eighties and later moved near Williford. There were several children. My brother, R.P. Lee married his oldest girl.
Caraway is the father of the Caraways near Egypt.
Uncle Bill Ball had tow daughters, Bettie and Hattie. Bettie married Joe Hollowell. The oldest of their children were my schoolmates at Opposition. I have many pleasant memories of the two girls. Miss Maude was a very nice lady.
