Lovelace was standing, precipitat-
ing him to the bottom of the shaft,

is supposed, instantly. 1t appear:
that Fluke was standing in drift
above Lovelace and had swung the
hosting bucket around for Lovelace
to get in, and while in the act o1
catching it he either slipped and fell
or rather the plat gave way, causing
the fall. As soon as Fluke saw what
had occurred he Immediately gave the
signal to the engineer to hoist and
went up in the bucket to tell what had
occurred, he being too much fright
ened TO go to the bottom of the shaft

ance if necessary. bout fifteen
minutes elapsed before Mr.. Dollison,
one of the contractors, could be got
out of bed and be let down to the
bottom Of the shaft, only to find poor
Lovelace's body lifeless. 1t is not
positively known whether he was killed
by injuries received by the fall or was
stunned SO that he come to his death
by suffocation, the water being about
three feet deep and his head was un-
der water when found.
Yesterday afternoon Justice Stiles,
acting coroner, empanelled a jury
and held an inquest, and to day Mr..
Lovelace was buried. William Love-
lace, or Missouri Bill" as he was
jocosely known to all of the old set
tiers, was one of the contractors on
the Lead Chief at the time of his
death. He was about twenty-four
wears old and wac an old citizen ~
