May 25,1904 - Allen Spier, a miner in Carlos slope, of the Barton and Georges Creek Valley Coal Company, aged 48, married, with family of six children, resided at Midlothian; was internally injured by a fall of roof coal, from which he died about 12 hours later. This was an accident none could foresee; his place was well timbered, and he was a prudent, careful miner.
