Details of Event
Whilst dressing slate rock off the side with a pick, a piece 7 feet long, 3 feet 6 inches deep, and 1 foot 2 inches wide came toppling over on to him. There was a clearly defined joint from which the fall came which ought to have been seen. The father of deceased, the foreman, was caught also, losing his left hand.
