Details of Event
A small stone from the roof fell and struck his head as his comrade was moving a lagging on a roadway where they were repairing. He appears to have taken no notice of it at the time and continued work, but fainted on going to work the next night. He died on the 21st November and the doctor considered that his death was the result of the accident which at first was apparently very trivial.
