came into the engine house about three o'clock on the morning of Oct. 8,
had his lamp prepared, etc. After a short conversation with the hoisting
engineer he went to the shaft for the purpose of descending. As Shoaf
was on his way to the shaft the engineer lowered the right hand cage to the
ground landing and as the cage was approaching this landing Shoaf signaled
two, indicating that he was on the cage for an instant at the landing.
Then in response to the signal he began to lower the cage. When
the cage had descended nearly midway into the shaft he heard a noise resembling
something falling. He stopped the engine and made a hurried wexamination
of the machinery and its surroundings, and found nothing wrong he lowered
the cage to the bottom. Resuming his examination he found the body
of Shoaf near the base of the head-frame and the rope of the left hand cage
off the sheave wheel. There were no eye witness in this case, but from the
evidence found on the body, etc., it is reasonable to suppose that Shoafr
opened the gate, gave the signal, and stepped into the left hand compartment
of the shaft. Seeing his mistake he grasped the rope and was carried
up to the sheave wheels, at which point he was thrown from the roipe and
fell to the ground.)
