Details of Event
Died 21st November. The roof consisted of old wood intermixed with stiff clay a kind of working place where accidents from falls rarely happen. A headtree was being put up when a portion of the roof fell and struck Goldsworthy, inflicting internal injuries, to which he succumbed about a week afterwards.
