Nineteenth Annual Report of the Illinois Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1900
Thomas Nevins, aged 67 years, married, was killed by a premature discharge of 
powder, in Kelly’s mine No. 3, on September 12, 1899. He had fired a shot and had 
failed to put in enough powder to dislodge the coal, and was in the act of re-
charging the same hole when the shot exploded, the coal striking him in such a 
manner as to produce death. He left a widow and a family of grown up children to 
mourn his sudden departure.
