Accident No. 10. — Fall of Roof.
At Kirkless Hall Colliery, belonging to the executors of the late Ralph Thicknesse, February 26th. A collier employed in the King coal was killed by a fall of roof, after having been repeatedly cautioned by his fellow-workmen to prop the place, which appeared dangerous. This shows the necessity of having the special rules strictly obeyed.
