Details of Event
Deceased was found lying on the road dead; the full journey that he was in charge of having run over him. His lamp and cap were found 400 yards farther in, showing that he had been drawn that distance. He must have been riding on one of the shackles and fallen off. Had he ridden on the full rope he would have been safe.
