These two men were brothers and were working in the same room. They had fired a shot in the coal and were taking out a leg or stump, which was left under the coal to hold it up for safety while mining, and there was a small clay slip running along the top, and this, with the coal being broken by the shot that was previously fired, caused it to fall suddenly and instantly killed the two men.
