Tablesorter - looking for a way to get a min value for a numerical column for a slider control

Hello,

Tablesorter is very good, glad to come across it. I am trying to setup a slider with a min / max range based on numbers in a column. I found a comment about this on web,  https://github.com/Mottie/tablesorter/issues/503 , specifically 

var colMax = $cell . closest ( 'table' )[ 0 ]. config . cache [ 0 ]. colMax [indx];

that takes care of max value, is there no min available? Perhaps this could be done by inspecting column, but not sure how to go about it. 

Thanks
