Diamond Mine Disaster Told Through Survivors
In Braidwood nothings changed as Thomas Smith recounts his escape from a flood in the west dip. He and a companion fled toward the shaft only to be swept back by waves and forced to swim across flooded sections. Smith survived while two boys he left behind perished. The cageman Thomas Daily recalls villagers gathering at the shaft and a distraught mother clinging to her newborn, amid scenes of bravery and loss. Many miners risked their lives. Frank Onley and Frank Motto are noted for heroic but futile efforts. A father watched his young son drown as rescuers failed to pull him to safety. By February 17, Diamond faces a long recovery with dozens of widows and shattered families. Experts say bodies may not be recovered for days. The Chicago Inter Ocean notes the disaster was unforeseeable and warns of new mine safety considerations.
