Fifteenth Annual Report of the State Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1896
Wm. Dobbins, aged 25 years, married, occupation carpenter, was killed at 5 p. m., 
January 21, 1896, at the mine of D. J. Lloyd, Pawnee, Sangamon county. The top 
works were in course of construction; Dobbins was walking backwards on the upper 
landing carrying one end of a heavy plank; he went one step too far and fell to 
the ground, a distance of twenty-one feet. When picked up he was unconscious and 
remained so until he died, several hours later. He left a widow and one child.
