The Piedmont Herald, Friday 13 September 1908: 
"Mr. James Brown, for several years mine boss at the Virginia mines and for
a number of years holding the same position at Elk Garden, died at his home
in Pittsburgh, Pa., Tuesday 15 September 1908.  The remains were brought here
Wednesday night and the funeral services were held in St. Peter's Catholic
Church, Westernport, Thursday morning and were largely attended not only by
the people of this community but by many from out of town, as the deceased
was well and favorably known here years ago before he went to Pittsburgh to
live."
