Details of Event
Deceased was on ledge 24 feet wide, on to which some others were barring "topping." He was told that a large piece was about to fall down, and that he was to go out of the way. He for some reason did not do as he was told, and was struck by the falling earth and he fell to the bottom about 34 feet.
