Nineteenth Annual Report of the Illinois Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1900
November 25, 1899, James Adair, driver, aged 45 years, married, employed at the 
Bennet mine of the Lebanon Coal and Mining Association, was killed, it is supposed 
by being run over by pit cars. After he had finished his day’s work, he was seen 
by other workmen leaving the inside works with his mule and two empty cars, going 
toward the shaft bottom. It was noticed that the mule came to the first stopping 
place without a driver. Two miners who had finished their day’s work and were on 
their way out, found deceased on the road, dead. He was doubled up, and had a 
large cut on the back of his head. Just how the accident happened is not 
positively known. He leaves a widow and three children.
