Who is Guilty? is another timeline following the Monongah Disaster of 1907, specifically focusing on the Coroner’s Inquiry which took place during the first few weeks of January 1908. This timeline will include all days of January 1908 but it will not expand beyond the Monongah disaster inquiry and events directly relevant to Monongah in the way How Death Gloated! includes detailed information on the other 4 major disasters of Bloody December and other relevant/related events around the country.
Much like all information on this site, this timeline of January 1908 is not complete and is not intended as a formal presentation of conclusions. This timeline is an educational collection of ongoing research and resources on the Monongah Disaster and its aftermath, created to assist myself in the writing of an historic fiction about Monongah. As a result of this, all posts are constantly subject to change, especially if any of its readers have information to add or share in relation to the people, places, events, and other aspects of these events.
