Details of Event
He was killed by a heavy fall of roof in a siding, which came down, owing to the displacement of the props, set beneath the baulks supporting the roof, by a rake of hutches, which was being lifted from the siding. He was immediately behind the last hutch although he had been told to wait until the rake had been lifted from the siding.
