    Miners graffiti is one of my favorite finds on these videos. Had to look up Hiram. Looks like he and his brother Joe owned a market in Eureka from 1929 to Hiram's passing in 1973. It still stands as Raine's market. I've always wondered if mining was for most a occupation to make quick money. Then move on to other careers.

    Pretty sure that drill is a Sullivan "Differential Valve", which the earliest mention of I can find is 1907.

    While working underground in enclosed spaces two of the best things to eat with your beans are sardines and eggs.

    Couldn't figure out why everything was so rusted. But in looking up Hercules dynamite, it was manufactured in Sacramento, CA and then later they moved to San Francisco, CA. So I'm assuming you were up north where there much more moisture than Southern California

    I've watched old cemetery explores with the guy holding his light from the side. It casts some shadow and makes it much easier to read the old stone carved letters.

      The graffiti says Eureka, NV and the history of the names are all from the same place.

    Pretty cool! There is info to be found on the web about brothers Joe & Hiram Kitchen from the era of those dates.

      Aha, yes, Hiram was a brother of Clarence, see my other comment above on their father's obituary in the Reno Gazette-Journal.

    In future may want to bring some paper and a pencil or charcoal when you come across carved in the rock message. Place paper on top of carved letters rub on paper then review the rubbing of what was written long ago.

    Hiram is pronounced HY rahm. It's a Hebrew name that means "high-born". In The Bible it is a name given to Phoenician kings.
