 File — Box: 1, Folder: 1
From the Collection:

In a December 20, 1919 letter to N. A. Eubank of Nashville, Governor Albert H. Roberts responds to an editorial regarding strip mining. Roberts notes that mining in Tennessee is done strictly with a shaft mine or drift mine, both of which require a very large percentage of the miners to be skilled in their work; otherwise it would be dangerous to the lives of the miners, besides being practically impossible to mine the coal.
