Description
A man lies on a stretcher while several others stand above him wearing oxygen masks during a drill at a mine rescue school. Illinois Mine Rescue began when Bill No. 42 was approved in the Illinois Senate on March 4, 1910. The law was written to establish and maintain mine fire fighting and mine rescue stations in coal fields across the state.
