"Mr. Smith, there will be no time off for the men or for any review of logging practices. Men are expendable and time is short. If you feel that you cannot comply with this order you too can be replaced." Memo from Company Headquarters to Camp Three foreman William Smith June 1911
"We are sorry to announce the unexpected death of William Smith. He will be greatly missed." - Company news letter July 1911
