Details of Event
The collier and deceased had left their own working place, which was weighting, and were engaged in getting coal from a small adjoining pillar without permission. One prop was set to support the roof alongside a visible slip and while preparation was being made to set another prop, the fall occurred causing injuries to deceased who died within two hours.
