Details of Event
10 February 1915: Blackburn - Accidents - On Wednesday a slight accident occurred to an employee in the “Latch” Pit, Blackburn, named Arch. Hamilton, he sustaining an injury to the side of his head and body, due to a fall from the roof. He is progressing favourably. In the No.3 Seafield Mine this week, an employee named McGonigal, Seafield, was injured on the back, while following his employment. We understand he is also progressing as satisfactorily as can be expected. [West Lothian Courier 12 February 1915]
