Description
Scene from "The Molly Maguires". Chuck Waters wrote the following on the back of this photo: "Location, Eckley PA. In this scene the 'Molly Maguires' have come to kill a mine superintendent and are met by the Coal and Iron Police, who were waiting to ambush the Mollies. Chuck Waters is jumping down out of a stable loft to try and intercept Art Lund, one of the Mollies, but is knocked on the head by Richard Harris, who's just behind Lund. In the scene, Richard Harris hit him in the head with a real gun and knocked him out. He apologized with a case of Jim Beam whiskey and a letter of apology. Left to right are Sean Connery, Chuck Waters, Art Lund, and Richard Harris."
