But owing to the heavy gas ‘emaining in the comparatively narrow ‘haft, it was not possible to remove the victim‘s body, and some hours elapsed Jefore it was brought to surface after team had been played into the workâ€" ngs to clear the atmosphere.

At ‘he time, Leonard, machine runner, ind Kennedy, his helper, were comâ€" jleting their night‘s work in a drift on ‘he lowest level of the mine and they were preparing to blast before returnâ€" ng to the surface. The only other employee on duty at he time was George Bairstow, who zave the alarm in the mine camp and also warned the men below. Leonard and Kennedy started up the ladders to the top, but while the formâ€" *r reached the collar of the shaft and from there dashed thx:ough filames desâ€" troying the buildings to jump into a small pond nearby, Kennedy did not complete the trip. Heard Man Call It was stated he had been heard to call out at 6.30 a.m., an hour after the fire started, but there were no further sounds from below. His body when found was on the 45â€"foot level, about 30 feet from the face. Chief Matheson and Percy Smith went down three times before locating the body, Smith being overcome once enroute.
