Friday last, incidence. John Davies seriously hurt in one odd serious accident at work - Westminster and Brymbo Coal & Coke Co Ltd. Fall of roof. Other workers involved in work accidents are Penrhos, one called Richard Owens - two members at Bethel (W). It is good that I understand that they are now improved in Rhagorol, Gohebydd.
