Accident In An Iron Ore Mine
A miner named John Graham met with an accident in Mr. Stirling's No. 3 Pit, Crossfield, on Saturday afternoon last. Graham had been engaged working along with some more men, when his avocation was suddenly interrupted by a quantity of metal falling from the ceiling of the working, and coming into contact with his head cut him so badly that he had to be taken home to Wath Brow, Cleator Moor, where he was soon attended to by Dr. Eaton, and we are glad to say is now progressing favourably.
