5 Miners Killed The Lima News, Ohio September 25, 1922 Glen Rogers lacks telephone and telegraph communication and officials here could only surmise how the fatalities occurred. "Skip fell in shaft, five men killed," signed by the Raleigh-Wyoming Mining Company was the only direct message received here. County officials at Beckley confirmed the report but know none of the miners names or details. The Glen Rogers mine is operated on a non-union basis. Reports that miner faction differences were responsible were emphatically repudiated by company officials here. |
