Houghton County Mine Inspectors Report

Accident No. 6. — November 3rd. Occurred at the Arcadian mine. Isaac Theava lost his life by falling down No. 4 shaft, from the third to the fourth level. An inquest was held before Justice Fisher.

John Kinn testified at the inquest: "I was with Isaac Theava at the time of the accident. He was just behind me. I had crossed No. 4 shaft at the third level. We came up from the bottom as the miners were blasting in the cross-cut below. The blast put out our lights. I crossed the shafts at the third level and Isaac was getting off the ladder and was coming behind me. I did not hear him say anything, but heard the noise of his falling down the shaft. The platform across the shaft is about five feet wide. I considered it safe to cross without lights. There is plenty of room to cross safely."

August Vollmer, being sworn testified as follows: "I am Isaac's partner. We were working in the bottom of No. 4 shaft, Arcadian Mine, in a drift. We went up the shaft together, I was ahead of Isaac; when we got to the 3rd level our lights went out. I went across the shaft and Isaac was coming up the ladder. I did not know that anything had happened until I heard something falling down the shaft. I then went down and lifted him out of the skip pit, and took him to the surface. I have crossed the shaft many times and think it is safe. The platform is about five feet wide."

Abram Lakso and Matt Fekka, two other witnesses, corroborated the above testimony.

The jury returned the following verdict: "We, the undersigned jury, find that the said Isaac Theava came to his death by falling down No. 4 shaft at the 3rd level, in the Arcadian Mine, on the 3rd day of November 1898. That it was purely accidental."

Onnettomuus nro 6. — 3. marraskuuta, Arcadian mine.
Isaac Theava menetti hekensä pudottuaan kuilussa nro 4 tasolta 3 tasolle 4.

Tapaturmatutkintaa johti tuomari Fisher.

John Kinn todisti tutkinnassa: "Olin Isak Tievan ("Isaac Theava") kanssa tapaturman sattuessa. Hän oli aivan takanani. Olin juuri ylittänyt kuilun nro 4 tasolla 3. Tulimme ylös pohjalta, koska kaivosmiehet olivat räjäyttämässä vaakasuuntaista tunnelia ("cross-cut"). Räjähdys sammutti meidän lyhtymme. Ylitin kuilun tasolla 3 ja Isaac oli tulossa pois tikkailta minun perässäni. En kuullut hänen sanovan mitään, mutta kuulin äänen kun hän putosi kuiluun. Kuilun ylittävä tasanne on noin 5 jalkaa leveä (1,5 m). Mielestäni se oli turvallista ylittää ilman valoja. Siinä on reilusti tilaa mennä yli turvallisesti."

August Vollmer, valansa vannottuaan todisti seuraavaa: "Olen Isakin työpari. Olimme työssä Arcadian-kaivoksen kuilun nro 4 pohjalla rintauksessa. Me menimme yhdessä ylös kuilua, olin Isakin edellä. Kun pääsimme tasolle 3 meidän lyhtymme sammuivat. Menin kuilun yli ja Isaac oli tulossa ylös tikkaita. En tiennyt että mitään oli tapahtunut - kunnes kuulin jotakin putoavan alas kuiluun. Menin sitten alas, nostin hänet pois kuopasta ja toin hänen maanpinnalle. Olen ylittänyt kuilun monia kertoja, ja se on mielestäni turvallista. Tasanne on noin 5 jalkaa leveä."

Abram Lakson ja Matt Fekka, kaksi muuta todistajaa vahvustivat ylläolevan lausunnon.

Valamiehistö antoi seuraavan päätöksen: "Me allekirjoittaneet valamiehet toteamme, että Isaac Theava sai surmansa 3. marraskuuta 1898 pudottuaan Arcadian-kaivoksen kuiluun nro 4 tasolta 3. Tapahtuma oli silkka onnettomuus."
