===Lemon Quarry cave-in and new job===
Barnes was contacted by Trent via letter in August 1944 regarding a recent cave-in at the Lemon Quarry near Guthrie, Indiana, where Trent explained twenty miners were trapped underground. Trent contacted Barnes in case he wanted to inform the company lawyers. Presumably a few days later, Nate Wabash wrote to Barnes concerning people in suits approaching Wabash in regard to the cave-in, wanting to listen to the rocks there. Wabash finished his letter by asking Barnes if he knew anything about this.
Later, David P. Whitinger of Kervier International wrote to Barnes, telling him that a representative of Kervier would visit him to discuss the Lemon Quarry, as well as any possible offers of a job at Kervier. Barnes accepted this job, becoming an administrator. Gorman P. Ellis, a foreman and investigator affiliated with the B.G Hoadley Mining Group, wrote to Barnes, speaking about the man who crawled up from the shaft, and how it screamed "ten thousand years" before it was tossed back down the shaft.
===Later life===
Barnes continued working at Kervier, eventually becoming an informant for the Global Occult Coalition concerning the anomalous. He died of old age in the late 20th century, prior to Gorman P. Ellis' interview where he redirected the SCP Foundation to Barnes, finding a great amount of information on SCP-2951 via the correspondence that Barnes kept.
