The letter details the death of a Wallis in the immediate aftermath of the declaration of a strike at the United Verde Mine in Jerome Arizona. Evans reports "Wallis had been working in a tunnel and from accounts received the strikers had set fire to the station building of the rail-road. At the fire the men inside the tunnel Wallis probably in the lead on account of his fleetness of foot rushed out and up a narrow path single file towards the burning building. Four men were shot two of whom were killed Wallis being one of the unfortunate ones." The May strike highlighted a rift between the International Union of Mine Mill and Smelter Workers MMSW and the Industrial Workers of the World IWW.
