Details of Event
9 May 1924: Injured At Pit - While employed as a driver at Parkhead Colliery on Friday, Daniel M'Atee (38) a pony driver residing at 25 Millar Street, met with an accident. It seems that a pony drawing a rake of hutches broke loose and M'Attee was caught by a hutch severely crushed about the back. He was attended by a doctor and removed to the Royal Infirmary, where he is progressing favourably. [Motherwell Times 16 May 1924]
