Summary

Description
English: Detail of obelisk of miner Eugene Ault, killed in the Cross Mountain Mine disaster on December 9, 1911, at the Briceville Community Church Cemetery in Briceville, Tennessee, USA. The inscription on the right is the "farewell message" which Ault wrote on the wall of the mine as he lay dying in the aftermath of the explosion ("Clarence" was Ault's brother, and "Bessie Robbins" was his girlfriend). It reads:

Dear Father, Mother, Brothers, and
Sisters, I guess I have come to die.
Well I started out and I came back
to side track, and Lonzo Wood is
with me.. Air is not much now.
Will be good, and I aim to pray
for God to save me. All of you
tell Clarence to wear my clothes
out. Give him my trunk. I guess
I will never be with you any
more. Give Bessie Robbins a
stick pin of mine. Tell her goodbye,
so goodbye. Give them all my love.

E. Ault
