Living Between A Rock And A Hard Place
Surviving In A Cordless World
Gospel Sermons For Sundays After Pentecost (Middle Third)
While persons were working on the White Pass Yukon Route Railroad near Skagway, Alaska, on August 3, 1898, a great tragedy occurred. During the blasting of rock to clear a passage for the laying of ties and track, a one hundred-ton granite boulder worked loose from where it had rested. This enormous rock came down upon two railroad workers, burying them between itself and the hard terrain beneath them. Having died instantly, and because of the immensity of the stone, any attempt to recover the men's bodies was not an option.
