Details of Event
Fall of roof at the face of a stall in the Yard Vein from two slips, one a face slip and another at the side. Apparently the slips must have been visible, and although he was told by the Examiner to get the coal down, he continued to work without doing so, thereby negligently bringing about his own death.
