Consists of records created and accumulated by Cyrus D. Sampson in his role as investigator with the Moose River Rescue Fund Committee. Includes a notebook containing minutes of meetings, notes, and drafts of letters, lists of miners, sworn personal statements from miners and rescue workers, correspondence between Sampson and fund administrators and government officials, and Sampson's own statements and reports on the rescue effort, in which he emphasized the role Westville miners played - a role which had been largely ignored by the media. 2003-029
