Details of Event
He was acting as haulier, in the absence of the usual haulier, that day, and was stooping to sprag the trams as they turned into the heading. After he had spragged the first two, the third caught in a tram, which was turned into a road, but not pushed far enough up to be out of the way, and it crushed him against the side of the road.
