Details of Event
Deceased was taking with his horse a journey of four tanks and two trams down a road dipping 2.5ins. per yard. He had put eleven sprags in the wheels of the six trams. A man was walking in behind the journey when it came to a stop, and at the same time he heard a cry. He went forward and found the horse disengaged and deceased under the first tank. He had been riding on the gun when the little pin jumped up and he fell to the ground.
