Thread Name: Origin Of John Henry--part TWO
Subject: RE: Origin Of John Henry--part TWO
A third eyewitness to John Henry's contest with a steam drill and death near Dunnavant, Alabama, has turned up. His son is still living.

The other two are C. C. Spencer and an uncle of Glendora Cannon Cummings, both informants for Guy Johnson, ca 1927.
