Brave Engineer Save. Lives.

Twenty-four Lancashire miners owe
their lives to an engineers gallant de-
votion to duty while in the throes of
death. The men were being lowered
down the Tyldesley coal pit the other
day, when the engineer, Scott, was
seized with sudden dizziness. His
whole thought. however, was for the
safety of the men in the descending
cage. BY supreme effort he applied
the brake and stopped the engine,
thus saving the men from being
dashed to the bottom of the shaft.
This accomplished he fell back and
died in few minutes.
