Coalmont A, B, L & O Mines—Owner and Operator, Sewanee Fuel & Iron Co., Coalmont; President, J. E. Patton, Chattanooga; Superintendent, H. S. Walden, Coalmont; Inside Foreman, J. M. Sehorn, Coalmont.
These are Class C drift mines, located at Coalmont, the terminus of the N., C. & St. L. branch line connecting with the N., C. & St. L. R. R. at Cowan, a distance of 27 miles. This mining plant consists of three openings, close together, L and O being connected. […] Generally speaking, these are damp mines, and the coal being rather of a soft nature, is partly cut with pick and then loosened with black power [sic]. […] Haulage is conducted from rooms to tipples by mules.
