Details of Event
Deceased, when he had finished his shift at 1.30pm, reported to the deputy that he felt unwell. He rested in the Colliery office, and had some brandy, and then left for home but collapsed before he arrived there and on being taken home died suddenly about 9.30pm. He was somewhat addicted to liquor and had been warned by the doctor against it as he had a weak heart. No inquest was held.
