Fall of side at face cliff, 9ft. by 15ins. by 2.5ft. thick, fell off the side of the rippings of a beading, off which he was turning a stall, as he was filling a tram. A shot had just before been fired in the coal, within 5ft. of the stone, and must have loosened it. Two-feet-nine seam. Died January 14th, 1906.
