Accident

A young man named Luke Flaherty, living at 8, Annerley buildings, Denaby, yesterday sustained a severe scalp wound and lacerated wounds to the neck and hands by a fall of stone whilst following his occupation as a dataller at the Denaby Mein Colliery.

His injuries were attended to by the colliery surgeon (Dr. Howes), and we understand they are not likely to prove serious.
