Eight torn and mangled bodies have

the mine survived the terrific explo-
sion of coal dust that wrecked the
workings
For many hours every surviving
miner in this region has toiled with no
thought of food, sleep or pay, to re-
move the debris and force air into the
inner recesses of the mine. They
have penetrated to the main entry
head, nearly three miles in.
Black damp developed late Monday
and retarded progress, but the force
pushed unrelentlessly on, some of
them until they were carried out over

Thousands of morbidly curious
flocked into Briceville Sunday and
crowded about the main entrance of
the mine. They saw nothing, because
there was nothing to see but the
pitiable grief of the stricken families.
All OF the bodies recovered have
been Identified Among them was that
of Will Farmer, assistant foreman of
the mine. The top of his head had
been blown off. He is survived by a
widow and two children.
