the boy who threw the stone, but luckily missed

Within the thirteen years from 1860

passionate charity, were responsible Tor
only about loneifith Of the casualties,
AS mines grow deeper, and as the
amount of coal extracted is incteased,
II might be expected that The casualties
would increase in number, not only on
account Of the greater number Of men
employed, but also because of the great
or obstacles to be overcome. But the
fact 10, that the conduct Of mining opers Z

In-1 1861 there 'wns one life Lost 10 every
