Biografía:
Wilf Carter (born December 18, 1904 in Port Hilford, Nova Scotia, Canada, died December 5, 1996 in Scottsdale, Arizona), also known as Montana Slim, was a Canadian country music singer and yodeler.
In 1923, Carter moved west to Calgary, Alberta, where he found work as a cowboy and made extra money singing and playing his guitar. It was during this time that he developed his own yodeling style, sometimes called an "echo yodel" or a "three-in-one".

Rescue From Moose River Gold Mine by Wilf Carter
Chorded by Gary W
This song is about a true event that happened on April 12, 1936
F Bb F
Way down in old Nova Scotia
C F
Moose River, it seems, is the name
Bb F
Three Canadians on Easter Sunday
C F
To the tumbledown gold mine they came
C F
They descended the mine for in- -spection
C F
Never dreaming Fate trailed them close by
Bb F
With a crash that gave them no warning
C F
En- -tombed in that mine there to die
Bb F
Brave men from all over the country
C F
Volun- -teered to give up their lives
Bb F
They slaved with unceasing efforts
C F
It seemed that death they de- -fied
C F
Long days and nights they had labored
C F
Turned back when great cave-ins fell
Bb F
While far below patiently waiting
C F
Three men were in one living Hell
Bb F
Many times turned back when near rescue
C F
They seen all was blocking their way
Bb F
With a prayer on their lips they worked onward
C F
We must win, we must win, pray we may
C F
On Sunday they got their first message
C F
From the men prisoned far far be- -low
Bb F
?Can you help us?? they heard the men calling
C F
?Our suff'rings God above only knows.?
Bb F
Next message filled all hearts with sorrow
C F
As they heard them say ?One pal is gone
Bb F
We are trying our best to hold on boys
C F
Do your best. Don't make it too long.?
C F
At last the great strain it was broken
C F
A miner out of breath brought the news
Bb F
`We have won the great fight!? he was calling
C F
?At last we have dug our way through!?
Bb F
That great fight against the Dark Angel
C F
It is one fighting heart all the way
Bb F
Still a tragedy came with the rescue
C F
From the tomb of those terrible days
C F
Now friends, this story is ending
C F
With hardships of many a day
Bb F
But this rescue will go down in hist'ry
C F
Of the gold mine down Moose River way
