Details of Event
Inspection made and inquest attended. He appears to have gone within the fence rail without informing the winding engineman and the latter could not see him owing to the winding drum preventing him from where he stood. No one saw the accident but it is supposed that he went to examine the crank pin and was caught with the revolution of the crank, and killed.
