SANDON.
A fatal accident happened at the Prince
Edward gold mine at Eganstown on Tuesday
last at 10 a.m., by which two well-known local
men, named William Mezzini and Robert Height
lost their lives. Both men were employed at
the mine working underground, and at the time
of the accident were both engaged in extending
the 300ft level south. It appears that after
firing a shot in the face the two unfortunate
men proceeded back to their work and had no
sooner arrived there when the roof of the drive,
which must have been shattered by the shot
from the face to a distance of about 15ft back,
and weighing altogether about 20 tons, came
crashing down on top of them. There appears
to have been two falls, Mezzini being knocked
down and buried under the first fall, and
Height appears to have been caught by the leg
by the first fall, and in trying to scramble out
over the top of the first lot, was caught and
buried under the second fall, and about 3ft
higher up in the debris than Mezzini. Both
young men were well known and respected in
this district, and are both married. Mezzini
leaves a young widow and no family,
