Thomas Bird
A putter was fatally injured at Dean and Chapter Colliery, Durham, as a result of a breach of the timbering rules. He was filling a tub of coal about 12 feet outbye side of a working place, when a piece of ramble fell from the roof between the front row of props and the face, and caught him. It is difficult to believe otherwise than that he was filling coal from the pillar side, contrary to all instructions, and to common sense. The maximum distance allowed by the timbering rules between the front row of props and the face was exceeded by 18 inches.
