Details of Event
A fall of clay took place on one side of the clay hole and partly blocked the hutch road leading to the face. Deceased and another workman began to fill the clay into hutches and while doing so part of the clay on face above slipped and crushed his right leg against the hutch. He died from his injuries a month later.
