Coal Available In A Short Time

Work Resumed on Decatur County Coal Co. Shaft Near Davis City

Due to the sub zero weather the men have been unable to work during the past month. Actual sinking of the shaft to a 465 foot depth is now under way. With fair weather it should be completed within another week or ten days, Charles Pennisten one of the promoters announced yesterday.

After the shaft is constructed the workmen will immediately drive the entry ways and actual digging of coal will then get under way.
