Below the Surface Slope No.4 miners killed by rock
Two colored miners named Joe Sharp and Joe Pickett were found beneath five or six feet of rock late Monday night by Tom Phillips. The rock fell while boring for a shot, they were not rescued until Tuesday afternoon, and both died. They were reportedly buried near Burnsville, Alabama. The notices also include health and medicine ads from DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve and Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, with claims of cures and product recommendations.
