Anthracite coal was discovered in Pennst lvania soon a'ter lite wUletneDt ot the'Wyom'nif Valler, but It first pra.-tical ue was by Obetiiaa (irosc In his blacksmith's xhop in the year 17' in 17U1 Phil n Cintcr tHscovcred anthracite coal otr the l ehtgh. In lali Robert Morris, o4 Philadelphia, formeti a company and ptirchttsiHi six thu-and acres of the nropertv on whieU (..ittter dlacovtretl the coal.' The coal com patty was ealled the I.eh'gh Coal mine. Thi company opened the mine and found the vein to be Mity feet thick and of the verv best quality of eonl The company matk every effort to tcnre a demand for the t'oal, but without sttocess, and, hnving tieconw th roughly dmrtntted With their sfwculation. leased the six thousand seres of this ma-timoth coal-field to Messrs. White & Hazard, of Philadelphia, for twenty yeara, at an annual rental of an' ear of corn. Messrs. White Ha anl uiefl to ttte the coal in the btat-fnrnnes in 126, but failed; the inrnace chilled. R 18.12 Xeilson conceived the idea of hot blast for saving fuel, nnd in 18S3 David Thomas adopted the idea of tbe hot blast and anthraclto togtOher. White Hazard hal, previons to this, formetl a company and bought the ttroperty. In 18tfi David Thomas htsde the mm of anthracite for making- pigmetal a auccesa, by which the twenty ears of corn were transferred into f w, 000.000. Ami this is the early history of the grvat Lehigh coal minS f the present day. 1 remember well the banquet riven bv Bnrtl Bntternon and Nicholas BWdle at Mount Citrhoti in 1840, at vfbiehUme they paid Wllliant Lyman, proprietor of the rToneer ftirrmo. to,000, the premium iHey bml offwred for the first successful ttte nf anthracite coal as fuel in a was furnace, Bui David Thomas was tbe lion of the day.
