Details of Event
He was coming out-bye upon an endless rope plane when he probably had an attack of dizziness and fell in the way of a train of empty tubs. On regaining consciousness he walked to the pit bottom. He was bruised and suffered so much from shock, coupled with a diseased heart, that he died the same night.
