Peru mining letter from Lewis Emery describes Andes trek
In a Bradford column a letter from Lewis Emery, now in Peru, recounts mining work near the Andes and expresses hope to return home next May. He writes of the harsh environment, the 1800 to 5600 foot underground levels, and the great ore body as the quest to aid his son and fund education. He also notes rainfall, political distance, and personal resolve.
