VI. — Acknowledgments

I wish to record my appreciation of the helpful co-operation of all who took part in the investigation of this occurrence. I express my thanks especially to Mr. A. E. McClelland of the Safety in Mines Research Establishment, for the examination of the rope, and to Mr. G. Archibald, Group Surveyor, and Mr. J. Reid, Area Surveyor, who prepared the plans which accompany this report.

I have the honour to be, My Lord,
Your Lordship's obedient Servant,
Walter Widdas.
