Pit Acc. William Goodhall 1837 of Monmouth (Inquests)
July: Mr Cooke also took another inquest on Thursday at Newland, on the body of WILLIAM GOODALL, aged 13 years, whose death likewise took place under very melancholy circumstances. He had come from Monmouth for the purpse of fetching coal, and though cautioned of the danger he was incurring, he perished in pushing his tram or cart close to the pit's mouth for the purpose of being early served, and the vehicle over-balancing fell down the shaft, a distance of 55 yards, with the wretched boy clinging to it. He was literally dashed to pieces, his arm being cut nearly off, and his head completely smashed. Verdict Accidental death.
