| | | | | | | Dunn, Patrick, 24 Dec 1897, aged 19, Labourer, In tipping a bogie it fell over into the hurry, and deceased fell with it a distance of only three feet. He complained of a pain in his side, but remained in the working place two hours after the accident. He subsequently walked home alone, a distance of two miles; refusing the offer of his uncle — with whom he worked — to accompany him. The accident was not reported to the officials until two or three hours after its occurrence. He died on the following day from acute peritonitis; aggravated, according to the medical evidence, by the exertion of walking home [Inspection made & inquest attended] |

He died on the 10th December [Inspection made & inquest attended] |
