Details of Event
He and another man were timbering one of the main roads in the Beeston Seam. They had set one bar and were in the act of setting a prop up under a second when a piece of stone fell from the roof and killed the deceased instantly. The stone fell from a slip which was not visible before the fall took place and from between the two bars.
