King, Bill

Bill King is known as the jokin'est man at the Barr Mine, a hard rock lead and zinc mine.

Bill King, safety engineer for the Vinegar Hill Mine and Century Zinc Mine, sure nuff practices what he preaches. Folks say he wears hard-toed shoes all the time. From a local column about miners.

Bill King says there is plenty he could tell on Barney Barnett, but Bill refuses to tell any of it because he claims Barney can run the fastest.
