Christmas Eve December 24, 11:28PM 1943 in Clarksburg, West Virginia at the Townsend Coal mine, tunnel 8. Wilson and Mollings brought a small Christmas tree down and Johnson brought out one of his hidden flasks of Kentucky sippin whiskey and the seven of us on midnights drank as we watched the tree burn. Mollings had doused the tree with naphtha and we heard later they saw the light all the way over to tunnel 14.
