December 15, 1899, George Tomasko, driver, aged 24 years, married, was instantly 
killed by a fall of rock in the Chicago, Wilmington & Vermilion Coal Co.’s No. 2 
mine, Streator, LaSalle county. Deceased was hauling coal from a few rooms that 
were being worked nights; going into a room for a loaded car, he was in the act of 
hitching his mule to the car when a rock suddenly fell, striking him on the head, 
crushing his skull against the car door; one end of the rock was resting on the 
loaded car and the other on the ground. The men immediately took him out from 
underneath the rock, but he was dead. Deceased leaves a widow.
