Close-up 1 of the Memorial dedicated to those men who died on April 28, 1914 and March 8, 1926 at the Eccles 5 and 6 mines. Located on Old Eccles Road. Boyd Ballard noticed that the names on the Memorial have some differences to the list from Lacy A. Dillon's book "They Died in the Darkness." Can anyone shed any light on this question?
