Narrative

The injured miner and two others were attempting to retrieve parts from a dismantled Galloway. The galloway was located at the 3000 vent shaft bottom. The three miners were lifting a metal sheave wheel from the galloway when it slipped from their hands pinching the right little finger of the injured between the sheave wheel and other metal.
