  • The Album caption reads simply "The Everett Copper Mine." The text on the reverse of the picture elaborates, "The Everett copper mine. My cabin is just above it. Hampton lives in upper (1 1/2 story) house, alongside boiler house. Everything else unoccupied." This picture appeared in "Our Southern Highlanders" (1922 revised ed., p. 24) as "The Old Copper Mine." A different picture had previously appeared in "Our Southern Highlanders" (1921, p. 72) and in Kephart's series "The Southern Highlander" (part II, "The Back of Beyond," "Outing Magazine," January 1913, p. 400) as "The old copper mine." This photograph is on Album page 19 with the heading "Great Smoky Mts."
