Punxsutaney Spirit, dated Tuesday, May 7, 1907:
The first fatal accident in the history of the Clearfield Bituminous Coal
Corporation's mines in Rossiter, occurred last night at 8:45 o'clock, May
7, 1907, when Michael Maloney and David Pittsley, two of the oldest and most
valued employees in that mine, were instantly killed by a fall of rock. Maloney
and Pittsley and five other men who were working about a mile and a half
from the entrance, were widening a heading for another track. The coal had
been removed and Maloney started to remove a prop, when the rock surface
overhead began to "creep."
David Strahan, who was working nearest to Maloney, warned him of the danger,
but the miner continued. When the prop was released, instantly a large flat
rock fell, crushing Maloney into a mass of flesh and broken bones. David
Pittsley hastened to the spot, but just as he reached it another huge rock
fell and he was also killed instantly.
Strahan started to rescue his comrades, but a third boulder came down, grazing
his head and shoulder. The men, undaunted by the fate of Maloney and Pittsley,
rushed to the scene, and in a remarkably short time recovered the mangled
remains of the two unfortunate men. The bodies were then brought to the surface
and in a short time almost the entire population of Rossiter had assembled
at the opening to learn the details of the accident.
The men were all experienced miners and the fate of Maloney and Pittsley,
who were highly esteemed by all of the employees and officers of the company,
cast a deep gloom over the citizens of Rossiter.
Maloney, who was forty years old, leaves a widow and six children. Pittsley
was twenty-eight years old and is survived by a widow and two children.
Maloney's remains will be buried in the Catholic Cemetery in this place Thursday,
but the arrangements for Pittsley's funeral have not yet been completed.
