    When Dreenlomane barytes mine was at work a man named Mr. William Connell of Dunbeacon was working about four fathoms under ground when a large stone fell on him. He was left under the stone and a priest was sent for immediately, because the people were afraid if they pulled him out and that he would die before the priest would reach him. When the priest came he went under ground and anointed him. He was then pulled out and he died immediately.
