Pope & Pearson Diamond Seam Price List 20th March 1922 Boot Hill Joe picked this up when he was In Tombstone Arizona, while it does not seem to have anything to do with mining, the fact is that the men hanged by the sheriff were hanged for holding up the mine pay office and company store at Bisbee Copper Mine and killing the staff. The other man hanged by the mob was found to be the store owner in Tombstone and he arranged it all. Bisbee is a copper mining town about ten miles south of Tombstone and is still in production today. The reason they were hanged in Tombstone is that this was the only town that had a sheriff and a judge for many miles around. Click here to email Joseph Stocks.
