Notes:  “One of the most baffling disappearance cases on record centers around a truck coal mine three miles east of Pikeville on Chloe Creek in Pike County, Ky. On a warm day in September 1949, Marvin Johnson, 20, and his cousin, George Johnson, 19, were working at the mine with their fathers, (including) Tom Johnson, Sr. They ignited the fuse to a charge of black powder to loosen a coal seam.

Then they left the mine to eat their lunches, and await the blast. They heard the muffled explosion and, after waiting until the smoke had cleared away, the two boys started toward the mine entrance to resume shoveling. They carried an old-fashioned carbide cap lamp, which later was found unlit at the mine entrance. That was the last their fathers saw them.  ‘They’re in there,‘ Tom Johnson, Sr., said later. ‘We saw them go in.’

As the hours passed and the two boys failed to appear from deeper in the mine where they were thought to be working, their fathers grew alarmed. They notified state and Federal mine authorities, and within a few hours over 200 men were searching the mine’s dangerous labyrinth of crisscrossing corridors.  “The searchers found no trace of the boys. A pair of bloodhounds brought to the mine found no trail.

After three weeks State and Federal mine inspectors reported that they were certain every part of the mine had been investigated and that there was no possibility that a rock-fall had sealed the two cousins in an abandoned room… State police circulated a missing person bulletin and police authorities in cities to which the boys might have gone were notified. But no clue to what happened to the boys ever was found.”

Notes:  On Dec. 26, 1945, a mine explosion in the Belva Mine trapped several men. When they were rescued some of the men insisted that they saw a “door” in one of the walls open, and a man dressed as a “lumberjack” emerge from a well-lighted room. After assuring the men that they would be rescued, the strange visitor returned to the room and closed the door. Other similar accounts have been reported during similar mine disasters, such as the one at a Shipton, Pennsylvania mine, where similar “lumberjack” or “telephone linemen” type of men have been seen, suggesting that they exist in another time-dimension, possibly explaining why they “knew” the outcome of the disasters. In some cases the strange “workmen“, as if taking the role of guardian angels, had offered trapped men unusual “lighting” to keep them out of the dark, and in other cases as with the Shipton disaster, “astral visions” accompanied the visits of these fourth dimensional [?] visitors.

Notes:  Patsey Wingate, a victim of UFO encounters, missing time, MIB limo’s, harassment, black helicopters, police-like cars in a temporal mist, death threats, the works… spoke of a mountain near Riverton where a certain UFO was seen on numerous occasions.
While on the mountain she would hear humming sounds coming from underground, then at home later that night she experienced frightening vivid “dreams” of “children underground on the mountain [who] were begging for help. They were in glass cages. Some of the children looked human, but some looked like aliens.”

Notes:  SE of Salem is Hodges cave, which some belief is the cavern that is mentioned in John Uri Lloyd’s book ETIDORHPA, which was illustrated by a veteran Mason. Witnesses have stated that they have seen Masons wandering about the area. One report tells of a nearby stone staircase leading deep into the gloomy darkness of the earth, which witnesses failed to fully investigate as they were hit with an overpowering sense of terror.
