NOTE: Sitting in Mitch Lynas’s dental chair while he excavated and filled four teeth was nor he most
pleasant experience in my life. Thankfully I was able to escape. Livingston Wernecke’s description
of that last cage being lifted out of the Treadwell Mine in 1917 is riveting. I was with Livingston
on that final day in my mind while Dr. Lynas did a different kind of excavating an backfilling.
