| Notes: | This accident involved two men, deceased and a man who was slightly injured. The survivor says they were getting a stone down in an old bord. They were working on the inbye end of it and on hearing some movement made a dash outbye. The stone fell and knocked them both down. Deceased sustained a fracture of the skull and was dead when got out. It was a foolish action on the part of the two men to work on the inbye side ; the work could have been done quite as easily from the outbye side |
