The deceased and his marrow were working in the same gateway quite close together. They had fired a shot, and after examining the place began ridding the stone. The deceased knocked a "breaking off" prop out to make room for some packing, and it would appear that he had been reaching for it when the stone, which it had supported, fell and crushed him [Inspection made & inquest attended]
