Details of Event
He was on his way to the Pit Bottom with a loaded rake, consisting of 5 tubs, and, apparently, he came towards the place where it was usual to stop, before entering a slight declivity, at too great a speed, and, in attempting to take out the tail chain from the first tub, he fell in front and was run over.
