Details of Event
He and his brother were cleaning up an old road so that they could commence to take out the pillar which was crushed and had weight cracks in it from roof to floor. Two bars had been set which were let in into the side of the road at one end but not supported at the other and in not doing this the deceased committed an error of judgement.
