Stratford lost 118 lite by a cave-in in the
large gravel pit 011 the i ebben farm.
To be smothered and meshed 10 death

the sad fate that befell Mr. Sebben, and
which almost fell also to the lot of his
brother Will. They bad been hauling
gravel from tate pit at the hack of their
farm to Stratford for construction pur-
poses on Dr Gemmell's new residence,
Waterloo st , and after backing their
team into the pet, were attempting to
putt a root of an old stump, which was
to their wets. With the unitedhelp of
the two brothers and Albert Forcer. the
hired map, the root was torn our and
immediately tons of frozen gravel tum-
bled down, burying George and Will.

Poyner. on recovering his bearings,
rushed up and around the huge mass of

but all in vain. He was just commend
Ing to dig his way 10 them, when Lorne,
another of the Sebben boys, drove up
wi'h 131s team. The latter rushed to the
house for help also phoning for a doctor.
Returning to the pit with another man,
all set to work aid after twenty minutes

although badly bruised about the head
and arms. After a few minutes the
frantic diggers were able to reach
George. but on his being taken out, life

part of the gravel had fallen on his chest,
crushing him instantly Mr. Povner
said it wasonly a miracle that the three
of them were not killed, as they were
undecided whether to 'go right in the
nu without pulling out the root or not.
Rut George, who was a bard worker
and never thought of shirt:mg, told the •
ethers to grab hold and yank it out and
with it came the veritable avalanche
which smothered him before he had
time to utter an exe•amation. When
digging for the two hors. Mr. Povner
said they were almost frantic, as they
were unable to bear a sound, hut after a
few minutes they heard a low moaning
and in this way were guided to the goal.
Coroner Dr. J. P. Rankin, who was
shortly on the scene of the accident said
that it was not necessary to hold an in-
