Remembering the Moose River Gold Mine rescue in Nova Scotia

Remembering the Moose River Gold Mine rescue in Nova Scotia

It's been nearly 90 years since three men were rescued from a gold mine in Nova Scotia, and an event will remember the rescue efforts.

It's been nearly 90 years since three men were rescued from a gold mine in Nova Scotia.

On April 12, 1936, David Robertson, Alfred Scadding, and Herman Magill were trapped 141 feet underground after supports gave way causing a roof collapse in the Moose River gold mine.

"The Moose River cave-in and the grueling 10 day rescue that followed was a momentous occasion in journalism and emergency response history," said Betty Belmore with the Moose River Gold Mine Museum Society in a news release.

The Salvation Army said its Emergency Disaster Services team was on scene during the rescue efforts to serve food and hot beverages, and to provide supports to rescuers, community members, and the loved ones of those trapped.

"We are thankful to be part of this anniversary event and to share with others the impact The Salvation Army EDS team had, not only in 1936, but continues to have in communities throughout the country today," said Salvation Army EDS specialist, David Aalders, in a news release.

"It is critical to remember historical events like the Moose River cave-in, and the importance of community partners when disaster strikes," said Aalders.

After six days of rescue efforts, there were no signs of survivors. Just when officials were about to abandon their work, they were finally about to make contact with the three men.
