He was on an inside scaffold- ing, which was held in place by ropes swung over a plank, high up, the ends of the plank extending from girder to girder> One of the blanks snapped in two and MT. Murray fell into pile of odds and ends of lumber, 42 feet below, and with him, of course, fell the planking that made the scaffolding.

 Though MT. Murray had fallen from a great height into a lot of old scrap lumber containing many protruding nails his only visible injury, aside from few bruises, was small cut in the side of the head. Dr. Scanlon made examination and found that no bones were broken and, aside from a c0ncussion of the brain. there were no symptoms at the time of internal in juries.
