Details of Event
Deceased was casting coals back from the face in a longwall working in the Low Main Seam, when a heavy fall of bastard post roof occurred over an area of about 9 feet by 4 feet, and about 1 foot thick. Three posts were reeled by the fall, the edge of which struck deceased in the lower part of the hack, and caused severe internal injuries from which he died on the 24th of the same month.
