Details of Event
A putter coming out-bye found some stone had fallen from the left side of the gateway, and sent for the deputy, who, after examining the place, proceeded to set a plank and prop to secure some stone on the right side. While so engaged a heavy fall of stone from the roof took place and buried him. When got out he was dead.
