Details of Event
The shaft was being repaired. By reason of the peculiar arrangements, it was necessary for him to get into a kibble to ascend the shaft at a lower point than that at which the repairs were being done. As he was being drawn up in the kibble a piece of stone fell from the side of the shaft and striking him, knocked him out of the kibble.
