I ing to managers OF the mine, fifty state

victs were burned to death. one is
missing and the other forty-one are

daringly executed. A lot of timber
lying in the manway was ignited and
the convicts hoped that when atten.

they could make their way through
the mine and escape by the main en-
try. They bad hoped to be able to
make their way along the mine ahead
of the smoke and fumes from the fire.
In this they miscalculated, for at least
eight were suffocated
